142 - Wolverine vs. Silver Samurai
I wouldn't have expected it, but Silver Samurai against a gray/white backdrop actually pops a little.

142 - Wolverine vs. Spider-Man
Commemorating that one-shot that effed up the Hobgoblin story!
I appreciate that this is set in a graveyard; Lawlis did his homework.

141 - Wolverine vs. the Thing
As someone who wasn't reading FF much at the time, trading cards of this era did a GREAT job of making me think the story where Wolverine slashed Thing's face was a HUGE DEAL.

140 - Wolverine vs. Hulk
One of my favorite of the "Wolverine Vs." cards - both for the visual heft of the figures and for featuring Wolverine's whisker mask!

138 - Wolverine vs. Cyber
Cracking these packs as a kid, I didn't realize just how many Marvel greats worked on this set. We've had John Romita Sr., Bill Sienkiewicz, and now Mike Zeck.

Fleer Ultra X-Men Series 1 combined Excalibur triptych

123 - Excalibur Part 3
I appreciate that Feron's cloud head is on Rachel's card. Poor Micromax doesn't make the cloud head cut (he does at least get name checked on the card back).

122 - Excalibur Part 2
I messed up yesterday & jumped from X-Men Blue to Excalibur, but I'll finish out the triptych then go back.
It's too bad Widget couldn't make it onto Kitty's card since, you know, it's her.

115 - Excalibur Part 1
Thanks to the fact that Excalibur at the time was only three members, this triptych basically serves as second cards for those members - w/past team members in the background as heads-in-clouds.

019 - Shadowcat
With this set apparently laid out in the short 4 issue window when Excalibur was composed of just three members, it also means it's the first set to feature Kitty in her new post-puffy blue sleeves look.
-
018 - Phoenix
On her way out the door for a solid chunk of years, Rachel gets one of her better trading card depictions. The look of serenity on her face is a nice touch.
-
017 - Nightcrawler
Perfect match of subject, approach & artist. Depicting Nightcrawler coming out of a teleport is clever & Sienkiewicz's abstract style creates the impression of a figure materializing from nowhere.

019 - Khaos
Fun fact: writer Evan Skolnick repurposed this character from Dungeon & Dragons campaigns he played in high school & college.

026 - Punisher
I know Punisher started off distinctly non-lethal, but I still love that the reprinted panel on the cardback is him kicking the crap out of Spider-Man vs shooting something.

Full Marvel Universe Series 4 nine card "Spider-Man" (with a dash of Daredevil) page by Ron Lim!

Card 058: Hobgoblin
I like the One Sentence Origin being both accurate but also leaving out, like, a lot when it comes to the Hobgoblin Saga.
-
Card 017: Morg
Origin: Is also Silver Surfer
I know Morg was a pretty big deal around this time, but he largely faded away after the 90s, right? Or is still around doing the "angry, ruthless herald" thing?
