Why This Set Matters
Spider-Man's Guest Stars
Based on Marvel Team-Up, this set featured the many heroes and villains Spidey crossed paths with.
Man-Wolf's Card Debut
Man-Wolf (John Jonah Jameson III) appears at card #42 — one of his earliest card appearances.
Obscure Characters
Steel Serpent (#16), Xandu (#18), Thermo (#19), Whiplash (#43), and Rick Jones (#41) — many with very few card appearances anywhere.
Deep Dive
The 1990 Comic Images Spider-Man Team-Up set drew from Marvel Team-Up's rich history of Spider-Man crossing paths with virtually every character in the Marvel Universe.
The character selection in this set leans toward the obscure end of the Spider-Man villain and ally roster — characters like Xandu, Steel Serpent, and Whiplash who appeared in key Spider-Man issues but rarely received card coverage in other sets.
