013 - Storm
I appreciate that her flight coming from wind is called out.
(cont.) From that one Christmas wax box, I was able to assemble a full set of cards - and IIRC, nabbed at least a half dozen chase cards.

009 - Banshee
Banshee, kind of in limbo pre-Generation X, gets tagged as a reservist, which is a fun way to include a historically-important but less active character.
Love the sense of motion created by the tilted skyline.

038 - Colossus
Svelte Colossus is a nice break from the more typical Swoll Colossus.
Pretty sure Colossus was with the Acolytes when this landed, but it presumably was produced prior to that.

024 - Psylocke
I believe this might be the first Psylocke card to reflect the Kwannon retcon in its cardback text.
Also, another card featuring a panel from something other than the character's first appearance on the back.

Julie Bell - who, with her husband Boris Vallejo, would later paint all the cards in the last Marvel Masterpieces set of the 90s - with an evocative Silver Surfer.

The semi-infamous "Iron Man fart" card, in which the background effects create some unintended implications.

Here's a lost bit of Marvel history never before seen by the public! This is an unused cover design for my Second Generation X novel, "Mutant 911." Why unseen? First, because the book was written by me, and ultimately released, under the title "Genogoths." Second, because the art was rejected by the powers-that-be at Marvel Comics and totally replaced. Two different stories. First, the title.
A day or two after the Columbine High School shooting tragedy I was contacted by my publisher. Early headlines had described the shooters as "Goths," and he was concerned that there would be an association with the upcoming book. Publication schedule was held back so the title and cover could be changed. I was dubious about this, but had little choice but to go along. As long as they didn't kill the book or make me rewrite it. Fortunately, the "Goth" thing blew past after a few news cycles as more became known about the terrible story.
Of course, because of the delay, if they'd gone forward with "Mutant 911" it would have launched shortly before the terrible 9/11 terrorist attacks, and the book would have almost certainly been pulled and pulped.
The story of the cover art is less dark. The original cover was done by well-known artist Julie Bell, and the rejection had nothing to do with her considerable talents. In fact, it was a bit TOO good.
The problem was that the characters here are all minors, and the work is -- sexualized. The costumes are barely painted on, and in particular that butt-shot, front and center, likely killed it. Probably if the characters were adults, it would have flown, or they'd just have put the title over the offending buttocks. But the art went back and a new cover was commissioned, also by Bell. I like the new one much better, in part because of the dramatic split-screen design, and in part because it includes excellent renderings of several of the original characters I created for the book. The original art, stripped over all Marvel trappings and retitled, later appeared in a Julie Bell quality art book.
The long delay probably hurt sales, but I'm pleased with the results at least.
