1996 Krome Archie Chromium trading cards take a lot of classic comic art and recreate it using modern metallic stock. It isn’t a complex or convoluted release but it is a colorful one. It’s also a moderately tough release to find.
1996 Krome Archie Chromium Checklist
The 90-card base set is largely character-driven. Archie Andrews and the rest of the Riverdale gang are shown in their various forms over the decades. They range from early appearances in the 1940s through to the more modern redesigns. Lots of cards simply show a character but some venture into one-frame gags and even covers. Backs are a mix of comic facts and history.
The main draw is the chromium stock in which the cards are printed in. For many trading card releases, this style was reserved for smaller chase sets. Here, it’s the norm.
That doesn’t mean that the 1996 Krome Archie Chromium checklist is missing inserts. There are a couple of sets.
Five Holochrome Chase cards brighten things up. Similar to Refractors like Topps does, these cards have a rainbow background when put under bright light. Rounding out the set are a pair of Super Chase cards that have Archie with Betty and Veronica.
If you’re looking for 1996 Krome Archie Chromium trading cards, they’re out there. However, they’re not nearly as plentiful as the 1992 SkyBox Archie set. Singles in particular can be tricky to find.
