Marvel Universe Series III Collectible Trading Cards in New York, New York

During this year, there were 205 trading cards including the traditional five Holograms. Each hologram was tinted a different color, for example Wolverine was tinted blue and Hulk was tinted green.
This series introduced new elements of design. Instead of having the "Did You Know?" fun fact on the back of each card (like series I and II both did), Series III featured a quote from each character.
Several new categories were also introduced. Team-ups (cards displaying interesting pairings of two particular characters), Cosmic Being (cards showcasing characters that hail from outer space), the Origins card category that focused on specific character origins, and Milestones, which emphasized events in the Marvel Universe.
The background artwork for each card was an outer space scene which fitted together across adjacent cards.
Limited edition factory tins(numbered to 10,000) were later sold that contained the full set of cards as well as an additional "power ratings" card.
