Magic: The Gathering's Marvel Super Heroes set brings back completely uncontroversial and universally beloved comics event Civil War

Spider-Man has starred in plenty of classic and a few not-so-classic story arcs, and Magic's Spider-Man set used a bunch of those as the basis for its saga cards. You drop a card like The Death of Gwen Stacy, Kraven's Last Hunt, or The Clone Saga (I did say some of them were not-so-classic) and every comic-book reader at the table knows what the deal is.

The upcoming Marvel Super Heroes set gets to draw from an even broader run of event comics, with saga cards like World War Hulk, The Coming of Galactus, and this one: The Super Hero Civil War.

I love that this card lets you take over other player's characters and then you can make them fight for absolutely no reason. Basically, when you play this card, for the next three turns you get to be Mark Millar in 2006.

Meanwhile, the World War Hulk saga card lets you play a red or green creature for free, then put three +1/+1 counters on a creature, and on the final turn double a creature's power and toughness, and give it trample. It's an easy way to bring out your Hulk, then make him as mad as he's ever been.

The Coming of Galactus ends even more apocalyptically. If your opponent doesn't stop it by turn three, it brings out Galactus as a legendary 16/16 with flying and trample who destroys a land every time he attacks. He does eat planets, after all.

As more cards are revealed, it'll be interesting to see how they handle other big Marvel events. Secret Wars and One World Under Doom, maybe? Doctor Doom is getting his own Commander pre-con. We'll see when the Marvel Super Heroes set comes out on June 26.
