I don't leave these things in the package anyways, but the new cardbacks do look pretty spiffy. I like the individual character cardbacks/graphics, maybe this is part of the reason for the rumored price increase next year? Maybe they won't end up being more expensive either, who knows. I agree with Brent though, that Emma Frost did not turn out the best. I'm not sure if I'll be getting much more than Hercules from this first wave or not, but the cards are kind of nice.
