  1. Which Fleer Ultra X-Men Series 1 New Mutants card is the best?

    Art from Bill Sienkiewicz, Bo Hampton & Joe Phillips.

  2. 135 - Mastermind

    One of the better trading card/static image depictions of Mastermind's powers.

    The power description is reaching a bit; he technically doesn't go into people's minds - he needed help to do that w/Phoenix

  3. 134 - Dark Phoenix

    Can't do a "dead X-Men" subset without Dark Phoenix!

    The description of her powers on the cardback seems to have forgotten Phoenix was also telepathic.

  6. 133 - Mimic

    As someone with a lot of fondness for the (not very good) 60s X-Men stories, I appreciate Mimic getting a card (presumably due to his imminent return as part of the Onslaught build-up).

  9. 063 - Captain Britain

    Nice job making the figure pop against a background that is basically his costume.

    Speaking of costumes, always nice to see the OG Captain Britain look.

  10. 033 - Spider-Woman

    Julia is a bit more...buxom-y than I tend to think of her, but I do like this card.

  11. Card 146: Cable vs Stryfe

    The purple gas cloud is weird, obscuring big chunks of the figures in awkward ways. I guess it's supposed to be time eating them?

  12. Try this again...

    Card 141: The Face of Doctor Doom

    A rare "mystery" dating to the Silver Age.

    There's two cards in this subset about someone's face, which isn't a lot, but also, seems like a lot, you know?

  13. Card 140: The Fate of the X-Men

  14. The full page 8, featuring the Avengers West Coast & Namor!

    Both Tiger Shark & US Agent's cards work better in this context. Love Splice just hanging in mid-air.

  15. Card 065: Spider-Woman

    I'd ding the DYK fact for stating one of the defining things about this character but she's not that mainstream, so it gets a pass.

    Less forgivable given that, is not speaking in any way to her powers

    #TradingCardADay #MU4 #AvengersWestCoast #SpiderWoman

  16. Card 041: Captain Britain

    Kind of an awkward layout, making a character more or less defined by his power seem squat and compact. Frankly, the cardback figure is stronger.

    UK 1st appearance gets cited w/no distinction.
