AustinGorton015 - 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.
006 - Wolverine
The way his bio is vague about the loss of adamantium makes me assume it was written before "Fatal Attractions" and makes me wonder if the writer even knew the details of the story beyond "radical changes."
