1997 Fleer/SkyBox X-Men 2099: Oasis trading cards are based on a single comic. Yes, there was a time when one book was enough to develop an entire series of trading cards. Granted, matters are helped greatly when the artwork is done by the legendary Greg and Tim Hildebrandt.
Art is the primary focus of the product. Each card is painted by the brother duo. The 90-card base set has a simple full-bleed design that is all-image save for the X-Men 2099: Oasis logo. Backs offer a recap of the story.
A total of 500 cards were signed by both of the Hildebrandts.
The only other insert in packs are Chromium cards centering on specific characters. The set has nine cards and fall 1:12 packs.
1997 Fleer/SkyBox X-Men 2099: Oasis boxes also come with a bonus card as a box loader. There’s only one to collect.
Given the limited scope of the product and the fact that it comes from the Marvel 2099 line, this isn’t the biggest set of X-Men trading cards of all-time. But anything by the Hildebrandts still gets attention.
