X-Men #4 – Vol. 6 – New Line-Up Trading Card Variant – 2021 offers a stylish and nostalgic tribute to the mutant legends of the Marvel Universe, with a special variant cover that mimics the classic 1990s trading card aesthetic. Part of the Vol. 6 relaunch under the Reign of X initiative, this issue is written by Gerry Duggan and features bold, modern storytelling with crisp, dynamic artwork by Pepe Larraz.

Inside, X-Men #4 continues the exploits of the newest team assembled from the vote of mutantkind—a lineup that includes fan favourites such as Cyclops, Marvel Girl, Polaris, Rogue, Sunfire, Wolverine (Laura Kinney), and Synch. In this instalment, the team responds to a biological threat with planetary consequences, as a new villain emerges whose abilities challenge the X-Men in unexpected and highly dangerous ways.

Gerry Duggan’s script balances action, character nuance, and big-picture worldbuilding, offering a tightly-paced narrative that plays into the overarching Krakoan saga while standing strong as a self-contained chapter. Meanwhile, Pepe Larraz’s art elevates every page with cinematic flair, dynamic layouts, and expressive character work.

What truly sets this edition apart is the New Line-Up Trading Card Variant Cover, a brilliant homage to the iconic Fleer Ultra X-Men cards of the 1990s. With its high-gloss, character-focused design, it’s a must-have for collectors who appreciate variant covers that blend nostalgia with modern Marvel storytelling. It’s the perfect display piece for fans of the X-Men’s golden age and those collecting Krakoa-era variant sets.
