Magic: The Gathering fans are set for a treat as Viz Media plans to release an English translation of a manga about the popular card game this fall. The original Japanese manga, titled "Destroy All Humans. They Can't Be Regenerated. A Magic: The Gathering Manga," offers a story by Katsura Ise and illustrations by Takuma Yakota. The manga is not only about the beloved card game but also provides a nostalgia trip, as it's set in the late '90s. This will be an eye-opener for both long-time fans and new readers, as the manga is still ongoing, with 15 volumes published over six years. To the delight of Magic enthusiasts, the English-translated manga will include an exclusive card. The manga narrative centers around a middle school rivalry and the early days of Magic: The Gathering, potentially attracting a younger audience and giving a historical perspective to newer players.

Will the English version of the 'Destroy All Humans. They Can't Be Regenerated. A Magic: The Gathering Manga' include any exclusive content?

Yes, the English version will come with an exclusive Magic: The Gathering card, adding extra value for fans and collectors.

Magic: The Gathering has grown from a card game into a vast franchise over the years. Since its creation in 1993 by mathematician Richard Garfield and published by Wizards of the Coast, the game has spawned countless expansions, a digital game, novels, and even an upcoming Netflix series. Its deep strategy and expansive lore have garnered a dedicated fanbase that continues to grow. The game's commitment to evolving gameplay and its competitive scene ensure that it remains a significant part of both the card game and broader gaming culture.
