The magician explains that their father used to collect cigarette cards, this type of card used to come in cigarette packets in the days when people smoked a lot more. The cards were very collectable and you have a set here, these are the ones that they loved as a kid as they are of Superheroes.
They show the cards and give them a shuffle, then faces away then dripples the cards down and let the volunteer call stop (no force of any kind).
The magician then shows them the face of the card they stopped on, and closes the pack before turning back around.
After three simple “reading questions” the magician can reveal the super hero in any way they like.
