X Force 90 Appraisal

SkyBox Marvel 1992 X-Force Trading Card #90 'The End'

This is a vintage trading card from the 1992 Marvel X-Force set, specifically card number 90 titled 'The End'. The card features original artwork by an uncredited artist (likely Greg Capullo or Rob Liefeld style), depicting various members of the X-Force mutant team including Warpath, Shatterstar, Domino, and Cannonball. A large, prominent figure of Sunspot looms on the right side of the card, carrying a sack over his shoulder. The illustration is framed within a black, stylized 'X' border against a white background, all set within an outer bright blue border. The card is a standard 2.5 by 3.5-inch size, printed on gloss-coated paper stock. Note the 1990s comic book aesthetic characterized by hyperbolized musculature and high-contrast ink lines. Regarding condition, the card is currently housed in a plastic protective binder sleeve, which has preserved its surface from significant scratching. The edges appear relatively sharp with minimal whitening (chipping), though the centering seems slightly shifted toward the bottom left. The colors remain vibrant without visible UV fading. This piece is representative of the early-90s boom in collectible comic cards and serves as a significant artifact of Marvel's X-Men franchise growth during that era.
