MTG Salvation

And thusly, the comics became readily available to the masses. (Thank goodness it's not a Mana Crypt)

Interesting. Great art used from the comic as well. Good tie in.

^5 Tezz.

I like it. The art looks amazing, and as has been stated already, budget card makes these a fun product, not a chase rare product.

Perfect flavorful idea, well done WotC.

Simply fantastic. Though Dack reminds me of a character from some form of media, I just cannot remember whom. Zorro, perhaps?

I like the fact that its only a common and I love the art, I can't wait for this

Already on my reserve list

Woopdy-fricken-do treasure hunt :rolleyes:!!!

Dammit...They actually managed to make me want to buy the comic...You win this time, Wizards...

Have they set a release date yet?

Easily Drake from the Uncharted series.

For some reason that art is just not working out with the concept of a Treasure Hunt for me. Ah well, no big deal. And a fun (if not particularly powerful) card.

It comes out December 28th

I'm not a fan of the art. It looks like the style of artwork they'd use for the cover to a cheesy romance novel. That guy looks like Fabio. I also don't like the the card symbol is IDW. If Pepsi had a deal where I got a Magic card for every 12 pack I bought, I wouldn't want the Pepsi logo on them either.

Just curious, how do we get the comic book? Will it be at our LGS or a book store?

Quote from ludd_gang

Didn't Luke radio to Dack while they were raiding the Death Star?

No, I'm pretty sure you're thinking of Wedge Antilles. He talked to Dack Ratler, his gunner, during the Battle of Hoth. It was memorable because there was a big "DAAAAAACK" when he died.

Anyways, I'd have called this a hoax if it weren't for the source. The image is poorly cropped down, it doesn't make sense as a representation of this mechanic (yeah, it fits the name of the card, but not the idea in the slightest), and it's a boring, uninspired card that just rotated and wasn't even good in a lands matter block.

I'm not saying I expect a $100 Jace Beleren promo with every media release, but come on. Really? Treasure Hunt?

Apparently he was the co-pilot in the Snowspeeder in Empire Strikes Back.

The comic is actually $3.99, not $5, and I would suggest preordering a copy through your LGS otherwise they might not order enough. I do the ordering at the shop I work at and I am polling the Magic players before placing my order. Want to make sure I order enough for those interested in getting the card.

Just epic wotc, nice flavor, card power and everything.

Or perhaps Dash Rendar?

Quote from Seeonee

I was thinking Flynn Rider from Tangled...

Why are people excited about this? It already had a promo that looks better. It didn't need an update and it's like a 23rd limited card. I don't think there's a worse card I could've thought of. (mind you plenty I could think that would be on the same level.

Quote from CorrodedTemplar

Wow.. treasure hunt.

So, yeah they could give good promo's like.. Lightning Bolts, or Ponder (maybe not for Modern), or Oblivion Ring... Etc.

Not unplayable jank commons.

I wanted a reason to buy the comic (because the name Dack Fayden does a rather uninspiring job of putting me off) and Treasure hunt isn't cutting it, at all.

Treasure Hunt isn't unplayable at all.

And here I thought that the promos would actually be usable cards. Silly me.

I'm sure it's perfectly usable as a bookmark.

I guess I'm the one with the dunce cap that actually kind of likes treasure hunt.

I wasn't going to pick this up, (I've nowhere around me to buy comic books) but I like free stuff too much... I'll now have to suppress the urge to buy it...

It's not that hard really.
