AustinGorton016 - Professor X
Solid card, which manages to use his hoverchair without making it the dominate element of the image.
I have always been distracted by whatever the pole thing is that looks like it's coming out of the monitor.
015 - Sabretooth
Fantastic card. Love the "shredding" effect and just "Claws" as a power.
That said, feels like the bio should offer some context as to why he's listed as as an X-Man (esp. since that's not quite true).
014 - Jean Grey
Feels like maybe she should have deflected those missiles further out. 😏
I like the contrast between her somewhat sedate, demure posing and the energy depicted by the missiles and her hair.
013 - Storm
I appreciate that her flight coming from wind is called out.
(cont.) From that one Christmas wax box, I was able to assemble a full set of cards - and IIRC, nabbed at least a half dozen chase cards.
012 - Archangel
In the running for best Archangel card of all time.
So after getting that wax box for Christmas, I somehow managed to show enough restraint to only open a few packs a day, and was able to stretch it out over break.
011 - Bishop
Nice to get a Bishop card where he doesn't have a gun.
I have a lot of affection for this set - Christmas of '94 I got a wax box (a box of packs) as one of my gifts.
010 - Iceman
Iceman's early 90s glow-up makes it to the trading cards.
009 - Banshee
Banshee, kind of in limbo pre-Generation X, gets tagged as a reservist, which is a fun way to include a historically-important but less active character.
Love the sense of motion created by the tilted skyline.
008 - Revanche
Nothing says "1994 X-Men" quite like this capture of the small sliver of time in which Kwannon-in-Betsy's-body was a de facto member of the team using a French (for some reason) codename.
007 - Psylocke
Bill Sienkiewicz with his first card of the set. Sadly, it's not the greatest Psylocke card.
