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!

139 - Wolverine vs. Omega Red
Design-wise, going landscape for these "vs." cards makes sense, but I don't love how the card name stays in the same spot as if the image was portrait oriented.

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.

Which card is your favorite?

093 - Forearm
I really dig this card. Something about the old school "put up your dukes!" boxing pose. Plus the cardback basically being like, "Power: has four arms."

043 - Weapon X (Wolverine)
For the first time since the first Marvel Universe set, Wolverine gets more than one dedicated card.

Which one is YOUR favorite?

089 - Vulture 2099
With all due respect to Vulture 2099, he concludes the set's base cards with much more of a whimper than a bang.

081 - Falcon
It's not a bad look, but it's a shame all of Falcon's trading cards feature his short-lived 90s look and not his more classic one.
-
080 - Lilith
Shortly after appearing in this card, Lilith left to kick off the musical festival that would bear her name.
-
072 - Nightcrawler
I get what Williams is going for, and I like the texture the visible brushstrokes provide, but I prefer "swashbuckling Nightcrawler" to "misanthropic Nightcrawler."

Card C-6: Princess Leia
Wrapping up the chase cards - and the set - with Princess Leia.

Card C-5: Obi-Wan & Yoda
So these two can be double-billed, but the droids have to make unnamed cameos. 😏

Card C-4: Chewbacca
Guest starring a concerned looking Threepio!

Card C-3: Luke Skywalker
And a surprisingly large Artoo!
There is also a more rare, parallel set of these insert cards w/refractor foil (ie quasi-holographic).#TradingCardADay #SWG1 #StarWars #EtchedFoilChase #LukeSkywalker #R2D2 #WaltSimonson

Card C-2: Han Solo
Simonson does a good Han; shame he never really got to draw him in the comic much.

Card C-1: Darth Vader
The primary chase cards for this set are six etched foil cards, each drawn by Walt Simonson.

Card #126: Brian Stelfreeze (A)
Great Leia. Another card heavily used in the promotion of the series.

Card #121: P. Craig Russell
I never would have guessed Bib Fortuna would be such a popular subject, but I'm pretty sure he ends up with more cards than, say, Yoda.

Card #116: Allen Nunis
I agree, this is a cool look.
There's been a few different "Leia gets the Boushh gear" stories through the years, but none that have ever quite hooked me.

Card #108: Esteban Maroto
More Bikini Leia, though this is casting a bit of a wider net and channeling more of the saga's John Carter influences.
-
Card #094: Keith Giffen
I like to think Bib Fortuna is tinkering with some kind of Space Blender.

Card #037: Bib Fortuna
Def wish we'd gotten some lekku waving in Jedi.

Card #006: Obi-Wan "Ben" Kenobi
Obi-Wan? Now that’s a name I’ve not heard in a long time...a long time...
People give Obi-Wan crap for not changing Luke's last name, but it's not like he changed his own, either.

Card 066: Professor X
Xavier has yet to have a really standout card. This certainly ain't it.
The red box above his head was supposed to read "Danger Room", but it was overlooked by the production department.
