  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. 024 - Empyrean

    A character with a complicated power set tied directly to a specific storyline, Empyrean never really took off.

    Props for teaching me a new vocab word via the name back in the day.

  8. 019 - Khaos

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

  11. Marvel Masterpieces Series 2 Thors!

    How do you prefer your Thor: classic, 90s, or space horse?

  12. 087 - Drax

    I've always had a soft spot for the short-lived "Jim Starlin-drawn First Appearance Drax" look, when he's much more just a green dude w/a cape and severe Widow's Peak.

  15. 085 - Phoenix

    Cool idea, so-so execution (I really don't like Rachel's hair and "tada!" posing).

    The Phoenix bird's beady eyes haunt me.

  18. 076 - Shatterstar

    In all his shoulder-padded, rectangle-forward, Greg Capullo-designed glory!

  19. 066 - Black Widow

    Good use of shadow and light, with an almost retro-modernist Bruce Timm/Darwyn Cooke style.

    Are you Team Short Hair or Team Long Hair for Black Widow?

  20. 003 - Thor

    The big innovation in S2 is laying the cardback text over the comic panel of the character's 1st appearance. While it can make the cardbacks a little messy, in the pre-internet days this is how I first saw a lot of this art.

  23. 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.

  24. 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.
