The idea behind 1995 Flair Marvel Annual is to offer a trading card recap from the major 1994 comic happenings. However, the end result is a premium release that lives on as one of the most popular sets of Marvel cards from the era. A high-end base set, distinct art and a strong mix of chase cards all converge on the checklist.
1995 Flair Marvel Annual Checklist Details
At first glance, the 150-card base set appears to take a character-based approach. And while it is to a certain extent, the theme is more what they did in the previous year story-wise. It’s defined and sets the overall impression apart from the Marvel Universe line and even Marvel Masterpieces, which are typically more general in their approach to heroes, villains and all points in between.
The card quality is high-end, similar to Masterpieces and Fleer Ultra sets. Besides the thick laminated stock, there’s gold foil accents for the name and Flair logo. The art was made using computers, something that was cutting edge at the time.
Inserts
Four additional insert sets are available in 1995 Flair Marvel Annual packs.
HoloBlast are among the most striking. Each card is done to showcase a battle. One character has a standard illustration. The other is a hologram. A total of 12 cards make up the set with one landing every three packs.
Although there are just three cards, DuoBlast (1:6 packs) stand out with foil on both sides. Like HoloBlast, two characters are depicted. Here, it’s one on the front and the other on the back.
Chromium (12 cards, 1:2 packs) get their name for the chrome-style stock they’re printed on.
PowerBlast are the most common inserts in 1995 Flair Marvel Annual with one in every pack. Each of the 24 cards use etched foil.
1995 Flair Marvel Annual is one of the most valuable sets of 1990s Marvel trading cards. At this point, the industry had slowed and print runs were down. The quality was better than ever here, so in the years and decades since many collectors have gone on to discover it.
