Promising all-new original artwork, 2026 Fleer Ultra Superman puts the '90s trading card spin on the DC Comics legend.
However, this is not the first Fleer Superman release from UD as 2025 Fleer Brilliants Superman marked the trading card reboot for the Last Son of Krypton.
2026 Fleer Ultra Superman Checklist Rundown
Offering rare parallels and short-printed inserts, the 2026 Fleer Ultra Superman checklist blends the classic 1990s era with modern enhancements.
Base & Parallel Details
Highlighting the heroes and villains of Metropolis and beyond, the 100-card base set for 2026 Fleer Ultra Superman is filled with fresh artistic takes.
Parallels include Green (1:3 packs), The Flash (/199), Black (/75), Debut Year (/38), Gold Spectrum (1/1) and more.
There are also limited Base Artist Autograph cards to chase.
Insert & Sketch Details
Adding more to the product, collectors have many inserts to track down in the 2026 Fleer Ultra Superman.
The 1995 Retro series features 50 characters using "clear chromium cards." Look for rare Purple (/25), Gold (/10) and Black (1/1) parallels, plus Artist Autographs (/38).
The Medallions inserts are also back, averaging 1:3 packs. Parallels include Gold, Platinum, Ruby (/50), Sapphire, Emerald (/10) and Black Opal (1/1)
Other common pulls include Ask Jimmy Olsen, from the viewpoint of the young Daily Planet journalist, and Greatest Battles, covering Superman's biggest showdowns.
Focusing on powers, Ultrabilities provides another nod to the '90s.
There should be a few Hobby box hits among the 2026 Fleer Ultra Superman inserts, as well. Family Genealogy (1 per box) highlights Superman's relatives.
Each box averages one 3x3 Connected Image insert from one of the three nine-card puzzles. All three puzzles (3x3) combine to form a 3x9 image on the backs.
Another possibility is the nine-card Bizarro Variant set. Hobby boxes should have one of these or any numbered parallel (/100 or greater).
Moving to the case hits and other rare chases, 2026 Fleer Ultra Superman features the classic Ultra Stars cards with dual-sided rainbow foil. These add a Gold parallel numbered to 99 copies.
Various card technologies are on display in 1961 Fleer 3D (lenticular), Kryptonite (plexi-glow), Man of Steel (metal), and Shield Bearers (acetate-embedded S-shield cards).
On top of that, the Animation Cel inserts have rare autograph versions, limited to 13 copies each.
Given the prevalence of artwork, it should be no surprise that there are hand-drawn Sketch Cards to bring the artistic connection even closer.
