1996 Comic Images Bone: Dragonslayer is the third set of trading cards based on Jeff Smith’s popular indie comic. After the previous release’s chromium turn, this one takes it back to a more traditional glossy look. Like most Comic Images products from the time, a manageable amount of inserts join the base set checklist.
1996 Comic Images Bone: Dragonslayer Checklist Details
The 90-card base set covers the Dragonslayer storyline found in issues 17-22. Basically, it’s a collected graphic novel converted to the trading card medium. The design is kept simple with full-bleed images of comic panels. While the comics are all in color now, they weren’t originally that way. So when these came out, they offered a different look, like when Dorothy first opens the doors to Oz.
Cards are printed on 24 pt. stock, making them thick and with a premium feel.
The top insert is also the toughest. Bone creator Jeff Smith signed 500 cards.
A couple of other chase sets are also available in packs.
Six Covers Chromium cards offer a metallic look at the fronts of the set’s six issues. One of these land every 16 packs.
Villains, 1:48 packs, put the spotlight on some of the storyline’s key antagonists.
There’s also a topper card #0 that was included in every box.
