Get A New Look At Classic X-MEN Trading Cards In New Book Coming This August

To celebrate the 30th anniversary of Jim Lee’s classic X-Men trading cards, a new annotated digest size collection of the complete set is being released. Including bonus cards, The Uncanny X-Men Trading Cards the Complete Series will feature scans of the front and back of every card along with scans of Lee’s original and digitally remastered art.

There will also be an introduction by writer and set editor Bob Budiansky as well as interviews conducted by Budiansky with the Marvel staff who helped assemble, design, and create these iconic trading cards. This is a great way to discover or rediscover your love for these cards that took the world by storm in 1992.

I missed the craze for these when they first came out, so it will be fun to have a book full of them to look through. You’ll be able to grab a copy when it releases on August 16th for $24.99.
