Sci-fi /cyberpunk artwork general / plot hooks for a sci-fi campaign

This was a /toy/ thread but I redid it for /tg/

I'm 31, born in 81, and when I was about 12 or 13 or so I bought a pack of sci-fi art trading cards. I lost them long ago, but I was impressed by the artwork, and I'd like to track down the artist, whose name I didn't remember.

I also had some Jurassic Park trading cards, and some X-men series 2 trading cards. Full sets of JP sell on ebay for $35, and I once bought a box of X-Men series 2 for six bucks. SIX BUCKS, people.

It's not this, I checked.

Once my best "friend" traded me a foil X-men cards for some jank, and it took me forever to get another foil X-men of that character. I was so pissed at him for suckering me like that. It was my best friend goddammit. Really opened my eyes to how I see people.

Another time, we were at a card shop, and I let my friend go first to buy cards. He pulled the hologram Wolverine, which was the super-rare-incredibly hard-to-find-card that was the chase rare of the set.

After taking a quick spin through ebay, I figured out that it was the John Burkey trading card set. The art is still really good, if a bit dated. Very late 70s, early 80s. Like coming outta that Star Wars art phase.

That got me inspired.

Anyway, sci-fi cyberpunk / non-sports Trading cards general? Also, anybody have any cool stories of collecting cards as kids?

Also plot hooks for a campaign set in the future?

We have a million "thread threads" but hardly any showing general /tg/ related images.
I'd like to change that.

Sensibly to reasonably dressed girls thread?
Peasants are preferred, or just any dresses aren't showing much, if any skin.
I need some references for drawings and such.

Assassins!

I need pictures! Pictures of assassins! Modern, Scifi, Medieval, doesn't matter! In exchange, I shall provide various pictures I find interesting/inspiring! I know this is an unfair trade, but take pity on a fledgling GM. Let's begin!

/tg/, tell me about Eclipse Phase.

The only thing I know of the system is that it lets you play as a roboctopus, and that is more than enough to grab my interest.
