Magic: The Gathering<\/em><\/a>\u2019s Secret Lair<\/a> drops \u2014 limited-edition trading cards created in collaboration with other franchises and IP<\/a> \u2014 have included themed crossovers with everything from Doctor Who<\/a> to Monty Python<\/a>. The latest drop, announced today at New York Comic Con<\/a>, is a collaboration with Marvel<\/a>. The cool part, at least according to this author, is that these TCG cards are a celebration of comic book history and aren\u2019t confined to the well-trod (but comparatively limited) Marvel Cinematic Universe<\/a>. Feast your eyes on this first batch of characters: Captain America, Black Panther, Iron Man, Wolverine, and Storm. That\u2019s right \u2014 the X-Men may not have yet managed to join the MCU proper, but they are <\/em>in Magic: The Gathering<\/em> now. And soon Spider-Man will be, too, with a full \u201ctentpole\u201d set on the way in 2025.<\/p>\n

In a preview video call with Polygon ahead of the official announcement, Wizards of the Coast vice president of Magic<\/em> design Aaron Forsythe and senior product designer Daniel Nguyen showed off the cards, talked mechanics and art, and even hinted at some future plans. This first set of Marvel cards is \u201ckind of a teaser for a partnership years to come,\u201d said Nguyen, with more on the way.<\/p>\n

An important caveat, however: Unlike other Secret Lair drops, this isn\u2019t a print-on-demand situation. <\/p>\n

\u201cThis one is an all-caps LIMITED RELEASE,\u201d said Nguyen. \u201cWhen I say \u2018all caps,\u2019 I mean there’s a lot of it. We made a lot of it. We’ve been gathering our numbers. So it’s not print-to-demand, but we’ve printed quite a bit.\u201d<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s go through the five Commanders and the comic book storylines that inspired each of their accompanying cards and their designs. These are Marvel Comics we\u2019re talking about, so there were tough decisions to be made about which bits could most easily fit the mechanics of Magic: The Gathering<\/em>. <\/p>\n

Captain America<\/h2>\n

\"Captain<\/p>\n

The first thing that Magic<\/em> players will likely notice here are the color delineations for Cap at the top of his personal card: red, white, and blue. But the colors are depicted in a strange way \u2014 they\u2019re \u201cout of WUBRG<\/a> order,\u201d Nguyen pointed out. \u201cHow dare we!? But in service of this red-white-and-blue joke \u2014 joke is not the right word, but you know what I\u2019m saying \u2014 it\u2019s just too perfect. Couldn\u2019t not do it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Even a casual viewer of Marvel movies knows that Captain America\u2019s shield is his primary weapon, just like in the comics. And so too on his collection of Magic <\/em>cards. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe see Captain America throwing his iconic shield for each of these cards,\u201d said Nguyen. \u201cYou take an equipment \u2014 it’s already on Captain America \u2014 he chucks it, bounces it off a couple of baddies and then right before combat comes back and sticks right back onto Captain America. You can just hear it bouncing off baddies\u2019 skulls. It’s just a wonderful design. Super fun.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

Of course, the way the turn order plays out there\u2019s always the chance that someone could misdirect that shield on the way back. It\u2019s not like it\u2019s Thor\u2019s hammer, after all.<\/p>\n

Black Panther<\/h2>\n

\"Black<\/p>\n

Despite the word \u201cblack\u201d being in his assumed superhero name, that sure isn\u2019t what\u2019s going to appear on T\u2019Challa\u2019s Magic <\/em>card. As Nguyen put it: \u201cBlack Panther, Wakandan king, as a white\/green card that cares about lands, cares about creatures coming into play [was an effort to] represent the leadership of this character, the connection to the land, the connection to the super-valuable resource Vibranium. So you\u2019ll notice right away that this Black Panther is not black. It is a white\/green character.\u201d<\/p>\n

He continued: \u201cThis character is doing something new. We don\u2019t usually see 1\/1 counters and lands combined in this very specific way.\u201d<\/p>\n

Forsythe emphasized this aspect of the design: \u201cTypically when a Magic card does have a color word in its title, we like to make the card that color. It just eases the understanding of what\u2019s going on. We tried designing some versions of Black Panther that had black mana in them. We tried leaning into an old comic story where he was the king of the dead. We tried leaning into saying that when he\u2019s in charge of Wakanda, that they were isolationist and they didn\u2019t share their resources with the rest of the world.<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cBut any time we showed that to our internal playtesters, or other people, just to gauge how we\u2019re doing as we made these, they bounced off that really hard. They\u2019re like, \u2018This character is not evil. This character is none of the things \u2014 he\u2019s not ruthless \u2014 he\u2019s none of the things that you would typically associate with the color black.\u2019 No problem. We took it off and just executed on the green\/white design.\u201d<\/p>\n

Wolverine<\/h2>\n

\"Wolverine<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have fan favorite Wolverine here,\u201d said Nguyen. \u201cThe best there is. A little truncation of that catchphrase that Wolverine has. [This card is] showing Wolverine in the snow, in the midst of a heated battle. There’s a hand behind the rules text there \u2014 it could be Sabertooth\u2019s hand? Who’s to say?\u201d<\/p>\n

Naturally, Wolverine is classed as a \u201cmutant beserker hero,\u201d Nguyen continued. \u201cA really nice callback here is that \u2018regenerate\u2019 keyword. [\u2026] Could have easily been \u2018indestructible,\u2019 could have easily been \u2018doesn’t take damage,\u2019 [or] any number of [other] things expressing Wolverine’s healing factor. But \u2018regenerate\u2019 just feels great and is a deep cut and kind of reflects the history of Magic <\/em>and the history of Marvel and how they both have these really interesting places to pull from and how the pairing just worked perfectly here.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s not a word, or an ability, we put in modern Magic <\/em>sets,\u201d added Forsythe. And that\u2019s true. Regenerate hasn\u2019t been used widely since the Oath of the Gatewatch<\/em> in 2016.<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cIt’s like a legacy ability that was around at the beginning of Magic<\/em>, but hey, it’s Secret Lair,\u201d he continued. \u201cWe get to dig in the crates and pull out all those stops and try to make the best flavor match and do some stuff that’s going to excite and tickle the nostalgia strings for Magic<\/em> players of all types. So yeah, happy to put regenerate here. The double damage ability, that’s kind of a shorter, newer template for that ability. Cleaned it up really nicely. It’s not double strike; it works really well with double strike. If you give Wolverine double strike, he’ll deal quadruple damage.\u201d<\/p>\n

Iron Man<\/h2>\n

\"Iron<\/p>\n

Tony Stark\u2019s card depicts \u201cthe scene we’re familiar with from the movies where the suit kind of assembles itself on Tony Stark as he\u2019s floating around. [\u2026] You can see a hint of that where the left arm is still in his business suit,\u201d said Nguyen.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is actually an artifact creature,\u201d Nguyen went on, \u201cbecause any card that would shut down a robot should probably shut down an Iron Man as well. We’ve seen that happen in the movies and comic books many times.\u201d<\/p>\n

Iron Man\u2019s implementation in Magic <\/em>also has, in Nguyen\u2019s words, \u201cthis very interesting attack trigger where he makes a treasure token,\u201d he continued. \u201cYou can turn this treasure token, which has a mana value of zero, into something with the mana value of one and kind of follow your way up the chain, which feels very much reflecting [\u2026] Tony Stark’s wealth, and also reflecting [entrepreneurial sense of] innovation, and [the] mechanized nature of tinkering and building things up [from nothing]. Hopefully players will do their own tinkering, making some cool effects off of this ability.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

Storm<\/h2>\n

\"Storm<\/p>\n

Last and opposite of least is one of the most powerful X-Men characters ever created: Ororo Munroe, AKA Storm. <\/p>\n

\u201cStorm in the comics is known as an Omega level mutant,\u201d said Nguyen, \u201cBecause she\u2019s so powerful. And so this card’s iteration is trying to express her full nature goddess fury and might.\u201d<\/p>\n

In another deep cut from the Magic<\/em> keyword archives, Storm actually gets to use the Magic <\/em>ability that shares her name<\/a> \u2014 \u201chistorically a very powerful ability,\u201d said Nguyen. <\/p>\n

\u201cStorm, fortuitously, is one of the most powerful Magic<\/em> mechanics ever made,\u201d said Forsythe. \u201cWe joke about internally having a storm scale, with storm itself being the most powerful keyword we would ever put on a card. And so as soon as we decided we were making a card of the X-Men Storm, it was [all about] how can we marry those two concepts together in a way that feels authentic?<\/p>\n

\u201cWe made the card red, blue, and green. Those are the colors in Magic <\/em>of weather phenomena,\u201d he continued. \u201cSo all the floods and hurricanes and earthquakes and whatnot of the world of our game are in those colors. I think you could argue Storm is a white character: She’s a leader, she’s noble. But we wanted to show her [\u2026] in full fury mode, so that let us put her in these colors. Other versions will probably lean more into the white nature of the character \u2014 but those are also the colors that would play really well with the storm mechanic.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

The inclusion of Storm diversifies the Marvel lineup, so to speak, across multiple axes.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you only saw the first four cards, you might be thinking we’re just doing the Avengers or something like that, which is not necessarily the case,\u201d said Nguyen. \u201cWe had to do Captain America, had to do Iron Man. Those are classic characters. And then the other characters that were chosen are trying to hint at the breadth of all the characters and teams we’re trying to touch in this partnership. It’s not just Avengers-slash-Magic, right? It’s all of Marvel. So we’re hinting at a little bit of that with the other character selections here.\u201d<\/p>\n

Earth\u2019s Mightiest Emblem<\/h2>\n

\"Earth\u2019s<\/p>\n

\u201cSometimes we do promo incentive cards,\u201d Daniel Nguyen explained as he showed off the Earth\u2019s Mightiest Emblem card. \u201cThis one is behind a $200 gate, which is conveniently the price tag if you were to buy one of each of these drops and get the whole cast. So that’s a nice little bit of gravy on top. And we’re including this Earth’s Mightiest Emblem as Arcane Signet, depicting the Avengers Tower. Classic card, [one that] everyone needs it in their deck, [and] it fits perfectly with this expression in this universe.\u201d<\/p>\n

Coming soon: Spider-Man and friends<\/h2>\n

The famous webslinger does seem to be notably absent from this lineup, especially given that the announcement of the other cards happened in Peter Parker\u2019s hometown. The Secret Lair team told Polygon that, in 2025, they\u2019ll have a tentpole booster release featuring Spider-Man. This is \u201ca full-sized set. Not a small thing,\u201d said Nguyen. <\/p>\n

\u201cSpider-Man comes with a lot of friends,\u201d Forsythe added, and that\u2019s also part of the messaging from today\u2019s NYCC presenataion.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cYou see all the deep cuts we’re doing,\u201d Nguyen said. \u201cYou see how the mechanics tie perfectly in. You see how there’s all these cool things we can pull from. That’s just [\u2026] 25 cards. Imagine the runway that we have with a full set \u2014 maybe more sets, years of sets. It’s going to be crazy. It’s going to be nuts, people. Hold onto your butts.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHe is the [most] iconic character that Marvel has,\u201d piped up Forsythe. \u201cHe has cross-generational appeal, one of the longest-running heroes and huge media success recently with the Into the Spider-Verse movies<\/a>, which [\u2026] hint at what the breadth of an offering based just around Spider-Man could be [in Magic<\/em>]. And I’m not going to give away too much more, but it doesn’t get much bigger from Marvel than Spider-Man.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Magic: The Gathering<\/em> x Marvel Secret Lair drop will be on sale starting Nov. 4, costing $39.99 in non-foil and $49.99 in foil with a limited print run.<\/p>\n
