About This Card
Series:
It's a shame this trading card series didn't catch on. I thought
these were VERY well done. The artwork was awesome, and I loved
the embossed printing that gave every card a 3-D effect. I
believe this was an attempt to keep Marvel trading cards going on an
annual basis. The "regular" Marvel trading card line, Marvel
Universe, had series' from 1990-1994. The "special" Marvel
trading card line, that featured supreme artwork, was called Marvel
Masterpieces and ran from 1992-1996. A "so-so" revival of that
line ran from 2007-2008. Quite frankly, I don't know why this
series didn't take and why there wasn't a Marvel Vision Series 2.
I do think this is one of Marvel's most interesting card series.
There were 100 cards in this series. The four major themes of this series were Fantastic Four, Iron Man, Spider-Man, and X-Men. The cards were split up as such:
There were four different Mini-Mags with this series; 1 came in every pack: Fantastic Four, Iron Man, Spider-Man, X-Men. There was also a special card called Encryptalyzer, which came 1 in every 6 packs. There were 16 different rub-on tattoos, 1 in every 3 packs. Some of these tattoos were used in the later "X-Men" trading card series of 1997.
Featured Cards: I won't display every card from a series because I don't think every card in a series is necessarily attractive or otherwise special. What you'll see here are some of the cards of characters I like best. I hope you enjoy these cards, too!
