Random Pack Break: Conan II: All Chromium

The farthest I've made it into anything Conan are the two movies starring Arnold's muscles. I've also stopped and oogled over the gorgeous covers I've flipped past on various magazines and comics. In 1994 Comic Images gave Conan the chrome treatment with Conan II: All Chromium. A pack couldn't hurt so let's see what artistic treasures sit within.

I think it's safe to say that Conan can be defined as bad-ass. The last card in particular shows his savage side, licking his own blood and apparently liking it. Given the ongoing battle between Team Edward and Team Jacob, I'll opt for Team Conan.

Like most every set, non-sport and sports alike, the chrome look doesn't translate well into scans. The artwork on every card is phenomenal and the metallic look works on most. However the cards with the most details seem to get lost in the shine.

Based on a single pack plus a couple of others I've opened in the past, this might be one set worth going back and tracking down. Inserts, none of which I've seen, include an Embossed Medallion card, six Prism Cards and a three-card Foil Embossed set entitled The Elements.
