Random Wax: 2023 Kayou DC Glory of the Universe Collection

Glory of the Universe:   This Storyboard card has Green Lantern, one of my favorite comic characters.  I like these cards which show highlights from the comics and it's appropriate to have Sinestro share the card as his biggest villain.
More favorites of mine.  I've always liked Green Arrow (this one is Connor Hawke I think), Hawkman and Hal Jordan (GL).  Green Arrow and Green Lantern teamed up for one of the best stories of the 70s in the storyline Hard-Travelling Heroes. I've read it and it was a great read.  I may have to reread it at some point to see if it has passed the test of time.
Plot cards in the set highlight movie scenes from Justice League, Suicide Squad, Black Adam or Shazam.

I really like the Super Cute inserts.  Plenty of variety in the set.
Cinephile cards are colorful and I like the look.  I had a double of Darla Dudley, a member of the Shazam family, and showed off the back which isn't much to look at.
No real information on these cards.  In fact, information on this set is really hard to come by.  Kayou is a licensed Chinese brand and it's almost impossible to find out much about these cards.  They are available on AliExpress.  I purchased two boxes back in 2025.  Each has 10 packs with three cards in each pack.  The boxes they come in are pretty nice.
Here we have a Storyboard, Fate and back of the storyboard card.
These cards are pretty thick which is okay and I'm a big fan of the set.
This is the Oversized Group Portrait in my box.  Each box comes with one and I like them.  They are around 6" X 8".  Always been a fan of the JSA and this is some classic art from an iteration of the team I really like.
About the best webpage for set information is on Kandor Archives here.
We get the Supergirl movie next month.  I'm excited.  I really like these cards and have more to post which I'll do over time.
