Card of the Week: Close Inspection
|
It's a running gag in Stargate SG-1 to see Jack O'Neill play with a magnifying glass (often in the background of a more serious scene), one of the many familiar moments the designers hoped to capture on a card. Picking just one freeze frame among the many possible choices posed an odd but fun challenge (even Teal'c has some magnifying glass humor in one episode!), but ultimately the nod went to this moment from the fourth season premiere "Small Victories." |

Card of the Week: Gerak
|
| In his handful of appearances in season nine of Stargate SG-1, the character of Gerak seemed to be a personification of the doctrine that "might makes right." He rose to power by having more resources than any of his potential rivals, and was unafraid to use that power any way he saw fit. The designers were keen to capture this attitude on his card. |

Card of the Week: Kvasir
|
| In one episode of Stargate SG-1, a character asks how people can tell one Asgard from another. Daniel Jackson answers, "the voice." It's an extra in-joke for those aware that actor Michael Shanks provides the voice of Thor. But it's a bit of a problem for the Stargate TCG. |
