I'm making my own Marvel Specials, but I can't seem to locate any high quality pictures of the Spider Man vs. Wolverine Picture found on the back of Marvel OverPower cards.

Can anyone help?

Thanks very much!

How high do you need?

This is the highest one I have available at 1000x1400 pixels (5x7 inch at 200DPI)

I've given out much larger ones in the past and I won't mind uploading the 1500x2100 DPI version of the same image.

I normally don't print the backs out because the cards are in sleeves and it'll never be seen.

This should work great, Jack.  Thanks very much.

Normally, I wouldn't bother with the backs, but the photo paper I'm using is just a little too flimsy and adding the backs would reinforce the cards.  Also, the sleeves I'm using are Ultra Pro Whites, which are somewhat transparent.

Sounds good.

I used Dragon Shields and using 300gsm photo paper with a Bicycle playing card seems to given the same thickness and flexibility in my decks.

Actually, the 1500 x 2100 back would be good! Would you be able to upload this Jack? Thanks heaps!

Hey thanks for the high res backs.

I still find the scans albeit high quality, may have been performed when the scanner bed and the card itself had a little bit of lint on them. If you look in the dark areas, the lint is quite visible. Would there be any chance of running a lint free glasses cleaning cloth over both the scanner bed and the back of the card and have it scanned again? Sorry to be a pain!

No.

What exactly are you trying to do that needs the best possible image of Wolverine/Spider-Man?

One could simply Photoshop out the lint with either Content-Aware tools or use a blur on some parts, you aren't going to notice the difference. And please excuse the lint, I was kinda scanning in 3000 cards over the course of 5 days.

Sorry if I sound harsh.
