As the line of DC Hybrid Trading Cards by Hro continues to evolve, this exclusive series, called the “Events Collection,” will feature premium packaging and bring forward artwork from some of the most memorable storylines in DC’s history. With the opportunity to purchase flowpacks on-site at Comic-Con, fans will have an increased likelihood of obtaining a Mythic Card, nearly ten times more likely to be found in this newest series compared to the Chapter 1 “Unlock the Multiverse” hybrid collection.

Also, exclusively available in this series is the chance to obtain cards that create full panoramic triptychs, each one made up of three distinct cards that reveal singular images of historic, fan-favorite comic covers from the DC Multiverse. The complete Events Collection, comprised of 18 cards, is the most exclusive Hro Hybrid Trading Card collection produced with less than 35,000 packs available, which is about 5% of the amount of Chapter 1 cards produced.

Consumers can purchase the new Events Collection of DC Hybrid Trading Cards by Hro exclusively at Comic-Con in San Diego July 21-24 at the Hro booth #4014. Flowpacks cost $25, and each pack will contain five cards (there will be a 10-pack purchase limit per customer). And for fans not able to attend San Diego Comic-Con in person, the Hro ® app will continue to act as a platform that blends the physical and digital worlds, giving users the chance to collect, trade, and buy this new premium series of cards on the secondary market alongside the Chapter 1 hybrid collection and the digital-only drops that have taken place throughout 2022.
