In 1992, Marvel Entertainment commissioned Jim Lee, the young
superstar penciller behind X-Men (vol. 2) no. 1, the bestselling
single-issue comic book of all time, to create all of the art for a
new set of 105 trading cards-a set that would go on to become one
of the most celebrated in Marvel history and the gold standard for
non-sports trading-card artwork and design. Lee was the first
artist to create all of the original artwork for a Marvel card set;
his dynamic character portraits, battle scenes, team shots, and
innovative nine-card Danger Room puzzle cards helped fuel both the
'90s boom of comic-book trading cards and the general public's
mania for all things X-Men. Fans of the chart-topping comics could
turn to the cards for further insight into their favorite
characters, as Marvel writers and editors-inspired by classic
baseball cards-included bios, stats, and trivia for each hero and
villain. The Uncanny X-Men Trading Cards: Series One collects, for
the first time, the front and back of each collectible card in the
set-including Wolverine, Storm, Cyclops, Magneto, and
Deadpool-alongside select scans of Lee's original and digitally
remastered art. It also includes interviews conducted by author and
set editor Bob Budiansky, with the Marvel staff who helped
commission, design, and create these iconic trading cards.
