Cards : 1992 30th Anniversary

While this series is called 30th Anniversary 1962-1992 Spider-Man II - in fact there was no 30th Anniversary Series I. However, since the prism special cards are numbered P7-P12, and hence follow on from the McFarlane Era prisms, we can safely assume that the creators intended this to be a sequel to the McFarlane Era series.

The packet (and box) say...

The dramatic history of Spider-Man from his first appearance to his latest. This 90 card series features art work from a roster of some of Marvel's all time great artists. As a SPECIAL PLUS, six super prism cards will be randomly packed within. These will be numbered 7 trhough 12, to complement the first six PRISM cards in the Spider-Man "The McFarlane Era" series.

Basic Cards

Like the previous McFarlane Era set, this set features text on the back of the card. The card title is on the back, as well as a short paragraph describing the history of the time.

The 90 basic cards form a summary of the key points of the first 30 years of Spider-Man.

Several of the cards look like cleaned-up versions of cards from the earlier McFarlane series from 1989 and 1990, however the card stock and overall quality of these cards is considerably higher than the McFarlane Era series which preceded it.
