  1. 136 - Thunderbird

    Can't do a collection of inactive X-Men without arguably the most famous one of all.

    Somewhere along the way, I misplaced this card, so these images are from @tradingcarddb.

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

    Art from Bill Sienkiewicz, Bo Hampton & Joe Phillips.

  3. 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

  4. 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.

  7. 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).

  10. Maverick trading cards!

    X-Men Series 1, Fleer Ultra X-Men Series 1 and 2, and Fleer Ultra X-Men Chromium.

    Which one is your favorite?

  11. 010 - Dreamkiller

    Feels like a Sleepwalker villain repurposed for Darkhawk.

    Not sure what the blue ponytail is adding.

  12. 006 - Charon

    Not only is this Charon's only appearance, he's the 4th most interesting villain in his introductory story, just a plot device for Peter David to pay off his Chalker family gag/subplot

  13. 050 - Cannonball

    Another standout of the set. Dynamic perspective & phenomenal coloring work in the different shades of the blastin' effect.

    It's kinda odd Sam's brief history w/the Hellfire Club doesn't come up more.

  14. Card 031: Sabretooth

    The #JimLee costume makes its way into a Marvel Universe series (after already featuring in the first X-Men set).

    Love the little snarl on his face.

    #TradingCardADay #MU4 #XForce #XMen #Sabretooth

  15. Card 063: Nick Fury

    After Dirty Harry.

    Probably my fav Nick Fury card yet. Given that his most visually interesting aspects (eyepatch, gray temples, cigar) are all on his face, doing a closeup makes a lot of sense.
