Similar to previous UD releases, 2016 Upper Deck Marvel Masterpieces is a set that pays homage to the 1990s Marvel Masterpieces products found under the Fleer/Skybox brand. Both celebrating and building on those popular sets, each hobby box includes one sketch card and one 1992 buyback.

Built around the artwork of Joe Jusko, the artist who painted 1992 Marvel Masterpieces, the entire 90-card base set is serial numbered and almost every card is printed on premium stock that is approximately three times as thick as standard card stock. A High-Series subset adds ten more cards. What If?! variations combine the base picture with the original comic image to create a new variant cover. There are also limited base and variant Autograph (#/10) parallels that are signed by Jusko.

Not just limited to base and inserts, premium hits are found in the updated Marvel set. Sketch cards based on previous Jusko artwork fall in each box as do Stamped Buybacks from 1992 Marvel Masterpieces. Signed Buybacks feature Jusko's autograph and are numbered to 15.

Offering several chase inserts, 2016 Upper Deck Marvel Masterpieces includes options such as Battle Spectra, Canvas, Gallery, Holofoil and the case-hit Mirage Lenticular Cards that have four different pieces which flip. Limited parallels, numbered to 25, exist for the Battle Spectra, Holofoil and Gallery inserts.

Lastly, there are rare redemptions that are good for uncut sheets.

UPDATE: 2016 Upper Deck Marvel Masterpieces can also be found on ePack. In addition to the chance at inserts and base cards, collectors can earn achievements by completing sets.
