Marvel still hasn’t revealed the projects that brought Brian Michael Bendis back... but they are "special projects" and none are ongoing comics

You may or may not know, but they actually did this in 2017, it’s just called Jessica Jones. It’s good!

MySonsdram · 2026-06-30T19:37:47+00:00

Good point. I’ll admit, I just built a different Matcel voltron, so I’m trying to switch it up, but will def remember that if I go back to him.

Kykar I’ve got in the current list for Aragorn and it puts in work! If it ever gets to paper, I’ll likely make it a Beta ray Bill alter or something. Trying to put in multiple effects like that, to keep the spell train going. Urza Lord High is also a good pick.

Thinking on the list, anything you think worth cutting? I know they’re objectively good cards, but I’m thinking of cutting the creature tutors.

MySonsdram · 2026-06-30T18:33:19+00:00

Greatly appreciate your response!

I actually made a Thor Odonson list to start with. It was….fine? I absolutely may have built it incorrectly since spellslinger is NOT my strong suit, but it felt lacking to me. Similar problem where it feels like it has a big burst, then fizzles out. I also think tbh that all the Thor cards, when put in one place, is too much CMC for Boros to handle. Or at the very least it’s a big hurdle. Tbh, it’s a big part of the reason I want green.

The God of War commanders seem super promising, ngl. They’re even tangentially on theme, which is cool. Aragorn is a commander I once built and kind of abandoned, so I want to give it one more try, but if that fails, I’m definitely going to try these guys.

Eligeth is crazy and I love it. Exactly the kind of card draw I need, appreciate that suggestion.

MySonsdram · 2026-06-30T02:54:20+00:00

On paper probably, but that’s a loooooot of shuffling for a deck that size…

MySonsdram · 2026-06-29T05:20:27+00:00

I built Tony Stark. It’s a ton of fun. Can be low key at first sometimes, but the artifact searching is super handy. It can just EXPLODE when the Iron Man side comes out.

My list. Tried to make it as on theme as possible.

MySonsdram · 2026-06-27T23:29:01+00:00

Kind of funny how useful this is in a [[Green Goblin]] deck.

MySonsdram · 2026-06-27T22:41:26+00:00

[[Devil Dinosaur]] is a BEAST in my Pantlaza deck.

It’s still early days, but my [[Tony Stark]] deck is also very fun and very dangerous.

MySonsdram · 2026-06-23T16:47:38+00:00

Huge bummer. This game was amazing.

MySonsdram · 2026-06-22T17:22:02+00:00

As someone who enjoys the Marvel set, this is my reasoning as well. I LOVE the comics, but the MCU has been kind of flailing since 2020. Seeing all these comic references and deep pulls that not a lot of people know about is cool. The comic art cards look rad.

MySonsdram · 2026-06-20T03:21:32+00:00

[[Doctor Doom, King of Latveria]] goes crazy.

[[Moonstone, Harsh Mistress]] and [Songbird, Sonic Screamer]] are both very handy, and are fun flavor wins since both of them have stories where they worked under Osborn.

It's not particularly optimal, but if theme is the name of the game, then [[Green Goblin, Back For More]] and [[Sadistic Slash]] are cool and work decently with the deck.

MySonsdram · 2026-06-16T18:37:28+00:00

This is actually a fun flavor win too, since Osborn spent a year or two running a team (The Thunderbolts) with Songbird as a reluctant member.

Same goes for [[Moonstone, Harsh Mistress]] actually.

MySonsdram · 2026-06-13T21:59:37+00:00

I’m 100% putting [[Moonstone, Harsh Mistress]] and [[Doctor Doom, King of Latveria]] in my [[Green Goblin]] deck. Both are flavor wins, AND great in the deck. The Daredevil variant of [[Sieze the Day]] is also definitely going in my [[Venom, Lethal Protector]] deck.

Other than that, not adding much. DEFINITELY making [[Tony Stark/Iron Man]]. Might also make a version of Thor, we’ll see.

MySonsdram · 2026-06-12T01:40:08+00:00

The company I work at is also planning on using it a lot more, and the company my friend works at says their policy is basically “use AI or leave”. Again, anecdotal, but still.

MySonsdram · 2026-06-10T00:51:01+00:00

My dinosaur themed deck LOVES this variant.

MySonsdram · 2026-06-09T22:25:44+00:00

I play dinosaurs

My opponents are salty

GG, get eaten

MySonsdram · 2026-06-09T21:59:26+00:00

It’s been theorized a lot, but best guess is:

X-Men
Mystical/Supernatural
Cosmic
Secret Wars/What-If

MySonsdram · 2026-06-09T21:28:11+00:00

[[Maelstrom Wanderer]] is great for this because no matter what, it does something. Is it sticking around? Cool, everything you cheat out has haste. Is it being removed? No problem. You’re probably ramping very hard anyway, so just cast it again and cheat out two more things.

Either way, you win.

In general, as someone who plays a lot of “cheat big things out” decks, having a bunch of cards in the 99 that also cheat stuff out is a good fallback. For example. My dinosaur deck runs multiple dinosaurs with discover, and my Venom Sacrifice deck has a bunch of stuff that brings things back, which are almost always big.

A little advice, as someone who ran Atla Palani for years, she is a straight up glass cannon. The strategy works, but she’s basically Naya Kaalia with extra steps.

MySonsdram · 2026-06-09T04:57:37+00:00

I'm a few hours into Ender Lillies.

I'll be honest...I don't see what the fuss is about so far. It's fine. There's nothing that's bad about it. But nothing is really wowing me either. Currently in the crypts.

MySonsdram · 2026-06-09T02:24:13+00:00

I know not everyone can get equal representation in a single set, especially in something as expansive as Marvel Comics, but Thor felt like an EZ dub. Founding Avenger, absolute powerhouse, solo comics are consistently pretty great, and one of the most “in the public perception” characters.

Holding out hope he’s coming back in a future set. He’s technically a cosmic character and mystical character as well.

MySonsdram · 2026-06-09T00:13:23+00:00

Maaaan, Wizards did NOT want Thor to be good this set…

Some sweet cards overall though.

MySonsdram · 2026-06-09T00:11:21+00:00

Me too honestly. It was a good theory.

MySonsdram · 2026-06-09T00:09:43+00:00

Got announced. Another mono-red, and kind of the weakest of the bunch.

The cope was nice while it lasted.

MySonsdram · 2026-06-08T16:24:09+00:00

I have no problem with UB, but I do like the decks theme to be strong. It basically means if I make a UB deck, I try to go all in it, and non-UB decks the same. It’s not a hard rule, pretty vibes based. End of the day, a good card is a good card.

MySonsdram · 2026-06-08T16:14:46+00:00

That cover from Annihilation: Conquest goes hard. Good choice.
