These were my favourite trading cards of the era, (although I hated the intrusive way they put the logo over the covers they printed). Over-sized cards and gorgeously colouful in a way Vertigo comics often weren't, they're tiny pieces of art by my favourite Vertigo creators on my favourite Vertigo characters, and they came out at the exact moment I thought Vertigo would save us all. It didn't, but it left some sexy relics behind.
