Why This Set Matters
The McFarlane Moment
In 1989, Todd McFarlane was the hottest artist in comics. His Amazing Spider-Man run had redefined what superhero art could look like.
Silver Sable's Early Card
Silver Sable appears at card #19 â one of her earliest major card appearances.
Chance, Prowler, Humbug
McFarlane's run introduced several minor characters â Chance (#11), Prowler (#13), Humbug (#39). Most have very few card appearances.
Deep Dive
The 1989 Todd McFarlane set captures a genuinely pivotal moment in comics history. McFarlane's Amazing Spider-Man run (issues #298-328) had redefined what Spider-Man art could look like.
Silver Sable's early card appearance at #19 is particularly notable. She'd been a recurring character in McFarlane's run, and her early card appearances are now of interest to collectors.
