That's cool. I feel I'm a little too old for trading cards now. I have a couple sets from the early-mid 90's, I used to like collecting them.

I'm surprised they haven't done anything like Magic, the Gathering and those roleplaying card games. I would think they would be successful. Or have tried already, and I'm just outta the loop? Whatever. I'm more excited for the movies than the cards anyway.

you are out of the loop....there was a game called the Marvel vs system....or something....MLs from 8-11 (I think) each came with an exclusive card with each figure for said game.
