Can anyone tell me what you're using to make these cards? Or better yet, point me to that source? 
I'm using this and Photoshop for minor alterations I might have to the text positioning.
Wow, this takes me back on MTG. These have been pretty cool, and creative. Compared with the "real" City of Heroes trading card game, this just seems so familiar and logical.
Great work!
Nobody "gets" me, Baby! I'm the wind...
Chicks dig Giant Robots!
That is so neat! As a beginner player for MTG, I had a good laugh. =)

yeah I'm doing printscreen and pasting in an already open Photoshop to crop and such.
updated my Project Reaver MTG card to be less broken.

Rofl, great stuff. I love MTG and i love CoH, to see them come together like this is particularly cool 
.
I haven't read through all the pages of this thread yet (still not done looking at the cards), so it may have been asked before, but does your presentation of these cards imply that you will be taking requests? If so, i'd like to get in line.
I was also wondering, since you seem to be well-versed in card modification, if you know the type of paper stock they print cards on, and where it would be available for purchase? I've come close with some of my dad's various photo-paper and other printing supplies, but nothing has hit the mark yet, so-to-speak. I would love to print out some of these and put them in my deck for when i play with my friends.
Very cool,

P.S.: I saw the Positron card and i'm still lol'ing at the task force ability. I saw, though that he was a 4/2. I was thinking he should instead be maybe a 2/10 or something, and that when you destroy him he has a sort of "Wrath of God" effect or something (hence making him a 2/10).
But anyway these cards are awesome. Very nice job!
