I used to love playing card games like Top Trumps etc. This pack wasn’t an official Top Trumps pack but it was my favourite of the lot. I was always a fan of Marvel comics and the artwork on these cards is fantastic. The game actually isn’t amazing because they only have three categories. You’d think they might have made it at least four categories. But I still thought it was fantastic.

The pictures below are from my pack I had as a child. Unfortunately there are a few ripped ones. They were always ripped like this as far back as I can remember, so it was always obvious who had The Hulk, The Human Top or Morbius! We’re also missing The Green Goblin. I need to try to source an image for that one.

I remember that the best cards to get were Goliath and the Silver Surfer. This was possibly where my love of the cosmic stories came from. I’ve always loved Surfer and Goliath since then. The Silver Surfer was the only card to have a 10 and Goliath was the only one to have two 9s. Mephisto and Thor were also pretty formidable. The pack also introduced me to some lesser known Marvel characters like The Grizzly and Tarantula. Interestingly there aren’t any X-Men covered in this pack.

Just check out the awesome artwork below. I’d love to know who drew these.
