The Booster Fun of Magic: The Gathering® – Doctor Who™

We wanted to capture the otherworldly beauty seen in the Doctor Who™ series through Magic: The Gathering® – Doctor Who™. Throughout their many journeys, the Doctor has visited several planets, timelines, and even met themself. With Doctor Who™, there’s no telling where you’ll end up next. That’s why when you shuffle up one of the four Magic: The Gathering® – Doctor Who™ Commander decks, it’ll feel just like you’re taking off in the TARDIS with the Doctor.

Traditional Foils and Surge Foils

If you’re a fan of foils, you’ve come to the right place in time and space! Each Magic: The Gathering® – Doctor Who™ Commander deck contains two traditional foil cards: the face commander and the featured commander. Those hoping to join the Doctor can find the Doctors and their companions leading three of the four decks. For fans of villainy in all its forms, you’ll find Davros, Dalek Creator and Missy in the Masters of Evil deck.

You’ll also be able to find every card in the Commander decks, apart from the plane cards, in traditional foil in Magic: The Gathering® – Doctor Who™ Collector Boosters. Every Eternal-legal card, like reprints, new-to-Magic cards, and tokens, will be available in Collector Boosters!

In addition, we’ve brought back a fan-favorite foil treatment: surge foils! These give an electrifying shine to your cards that’s sure to catch the eye of your fellow Commander players.

TARDIS Showcase Treatments

The TARDIS is travelling somewhere new: into the Magic card frame! In this set, 30 cards—3 uncommons, 23 rares, and 5 mythic rares—have variant TARDIS showcase treatments. They depict the characters of Doctor Who™ with special stylized artwork inside of a beautiful blue TARDIS frame. The Doctor, their companions, and even their enemies can be found in the TARDIS showcase frame.

Cards with the TARDIS showcase treatment are only available in Collector Boosters. While the traditional versions of these cards more closely resemble their live-action counterparts, the TARDIS showcase variants add a stylistic flourish that Whovians are sure to love. You can find these treatments in Magic: The Gathering® – Doctor Who™ Collector Boosters.

Extended-Art Cards

While Magic cards aren’t bigger on the inside (yet!), you’ll be able to find extended-art variants of these cards where more of the Doctor Who™ artwork is on display. Rare and mythic rare reprints and new-to-Magic cards will receive the extended-art treatment. Please note: Sagas do not have extended-art frames and won’t receive the extended-art treatment.

Extended-art cards can also be found in traditional foil and surge foil. All extended-art reprints and new-to-Magic cards can be found in Magic: The Gathering® – Doctor Who™ Collector Boosters in non-foil, traditional foil, and surge foil.

Serialized Doctor Cards

You may cross timelines with serialized variants of the Doctor. Each main incarnation of the Doctor, from the First Doctor to the Thirteenth Doctor, will receive a serialized variant with the TARDIS showcase treatment. Printed in beautiful double rainbow foil and marked with their own serial number, each card will receive only about 500 printings and can only be found in Collector Boosters.

Serialized Doctors Explainer

Serialized Doctor cards are localized in English only and are available in Magic: The Gathering® – Doctor Who™ Collector Boosters of any language. Non-serialized Doctor cards are mechanically identical to serialized variants. See product packaging for details. Images are digital renderings, not actual cards.

GET YOUR FIRST LOOK AT THE SENSATIONAL FIRST ISSUE OF SPIDER-BOY’S SOLO SERIES!

Dan Slott and Paco Medina’s SPIDER-BOY #1 arrives on November 1. Check out all the covers and all-new interior artwork!

 

New York, NY— September 15, 2023 — It’s the era of Spider-Boy! After scoring multiple sold-out printings of his key appearances and gripping the imaginations of fans with his mysterious backstory, Spider-Man’s long-lost sidekick has landed his very own solo series. Launching in November, SPIDER-BOY #1 will see co-creator Dan Slott and artist Paco Medina begin to unravel the startling origin behind Bailey Briggs, the young hero that the Marvel Universe forgot! Today, fans can see all the variant covers that will grace this highly-anticipated first issue, including Kaare Andrews’ special Foil Variant Cover, and get a sneak peek at never-before-seen interior artwork!

 

Leaping from the pages of Dan Slott and Mark Bagley’s blockbuster run of Spider-Man, it’s time for readers to experience the thrill of a Spider-Boy adventure! In addition to digging into Spider-Boy’s top-secret past and exploring the reason why no one in the world remembers him, the new series will unleash the insanity of Spider-Boy’s personal rogues gallery. In the new preview pages, fans can see a classic Spidey team up against new foe Gutterball as well as a faceoff against an animalistic henchman of Madame Monstrosity, the mad scientist behind Bailey’s transformation into Spider-Boy! This new villain claims to have played a role in the origins of a host of iconic Marvel baddies, and Bailey may regret digging into the dark truths behind his creation…

 

“Spider-Man isn’t supposed to have a sidekick. That’s just wrong on so many levels. And that is exactly why we are going to have so much fun with this,” Slott explained. “Both this character—and this new title—are going to break all the rules. Bailey Briggs is going to have over-the-top adventures in the Spider-Man corner of the Marvel Universe. He’ll be facing off against a mix of both all-new villains and fan-favorite Spidey bad guys. The one thing we can promise you, whenever you pick up a copy of SPIDER-BOY, we are going to take the weirdest and wildest swings with every single story! Our goal is to get every reader to ask two questions: ‘What in the hell did I just read?!’ and ‘When is the NEXT one coming out?!'”
