1993 SkyBox Dark Horse Comics Insignia - Star Race Trading Card (#13)

This is a vintage 1993 SkyBox Dark Horse Comics trading card featuring the 'Star Race' artwork, illustrated by Paul Guinan. The card measures approximately 2.5 by 3.5 inches and is printed on a heavy-weight cardstock with a distinctive matte metallic finish. The artwork depicts a tense sci-fi scene featuring a figure in a high-tech armored suit, specialized helmet with a glowing interior, and a multi-limbed alien Xenomorph-style creature descending from the upper purple-toned background. The central artwork is framed by a brown border accented with stylized, embossed gold-toned rivet or mechanical bolt graphics lining the left and top edges, characteristic of the 'Insignia' insert set. The top right corner displays the Dark Horse Comics circular logo, while the bottom right identifies the artist, Paul Guinan. The card is currently housed in a clear protective plastic sleeve or page, which obscures some fine surface details, but the edges appear relatively crisp with minor whitening visible on the bottom edge. This card represents the mid-1990s boom in collectible comic-themed trading cards, showcasing high-quality illustration techniques and premium printing effects like foil stamping and embossing used to attract collectors during that era.
