Ultraverse Trading Cards from Skybox

When the Ultraverse began publishing, there were advertisements from Skybox for Ultraverse cards from the very first issue.

The initial set was a 100 card set featuring Heroes, Villains, Origins, Titles and Culture.  There was a Checklist card as well as several chase cards in a series of harder to find collect-ability.  Rookies were 7:36, Ultimate Rookies were 1:18 and Ultra Cards were 1:36.

There were also promo cards that appeared everywhere from polybagged copiesof the books to various Comics magazines.
