Classic - boosters only
Released in the Fall of 1997
This was the last set published by Fleer before they
dropped the game in late 1997. This set introduced Tactic: Artifact
cards, but these are only seldom used. There is really only one character
that sees serious play from this set, as the rest are grossly under powered.
Quite a few of these cards are very rare or borderline very rare, so it
may take a while to get a complete set, whether you buy or trade for them.
Basic card totals for this set:
-
24 new characters
-
6 Specials for 21 of these characters, but only 3 Specials for Marrow,
Maggot, and Reyes
-
1 Any Character Special, a reprint of a DC Any Character
-
8 Variant Characters
-
27 Specials for new Characters from Onslaught, IQ, and Monumental
-
5 new Location cards
-
Level 7 Any Power card - It should say it's a One Per Deck and it
is as common as air
-
8 Tactic: Artifact cards
-
16 Tactic: Doubleshot cards
-
1 Any Mission Event
