Silver Surfer All-Prism Trading Cards from 1992
Published in 1992 by Comic Images, this SILVER SURFER "All Prism" collector non-sport trading cards consists of 72 basic cards (including checklist) which feature the Silver Surfer himself and assorted Marvel Comics characters - including Hulk, Fantastic Four, Dr. Strange, Thor Thanos, Drax, Warlock, Quasar, Galactus and others - all apart of major story arc moments in relation to the Silver Surfer's comiocbook adventures. You might recognise a whole bunch of them are from comicbook covers, and feature artwork from my favs, including Jim Lee, Jack Kirby, Ron Lim, John Romita Jr and more!
(Above card flip video also watchable here on Insta, cheers).
Some online listings might coin these as "foil", or in this case "prism", which essentially indicates ALL 72 cards in the set feature the light-reflective "prism foil" effect seen in childhood Japanese stickers! Check out some select still snaps shared here too, cheers.
I had resisted opening up and one and only sealed box of the trading cards for years, until recently when curiosity got the better of 3 decades' worth of resistance! LOL
In my muddled memory, the box yielded two complete sets, and this is one of them. What I do not remember is if I had sold the previous set already (at my pop-ups)? Or if they are somewhere in my hoard, and ultimately I do want to keep one complete set on file ... so until I do happen to "find" the other set, THIS set will remain unavailable, until further update, sorry.
Honestly, when once I had thought these looked kinda-cheesy and kitschy with the prism-effect, I have since regrown to adore this set and am resistant to selling these ...! LOL
Featured below is a closer look at the BACK of the cards, which showcases between character descriptions, and story arcs where The Silver Surfer is involved...
FYI: I had been offering up SINGLE extra cards at my past pop-ups, with most Silver Surfer images spoken for already, and will no longer offer them at subsequent pop-ups, cheers. Featured below are the remainders of my singles, availabl;e via DM only, cheers.
