I believe the rules system was actually a simplified version of MtG called ARC System - three "sets" came out of it, Jim Lee's C-23, one for the Xena TV show, one for the Hercules TV show.
Yeah, that happened, but it was years later. Upper Deck tried it again a few years after that, too, under the branding "Quickstrike". One was based on the Pirates of the Caribbean movies, the other two based on the Shaman King and Avatar: The Last Airbender anime. None of them were very popular. UD uses similar common rules for some of their card based board games, but I'm not as familiar with the details on those.
