Happy Monday MTG peeps,
We recently picked up the first issue of Spell Thief, the next series in IDW's Magic the Gathering comic book series. Most MTG players we know have a bit of collector in them. Since these comic books have variant graphic covers, as well as an exclusive, alternate art playable Magic The Gathering card, we think that these may also make a nice inexpensive gift for that MTG nerd in your life, or perhaps as a nice apology for that fellow gamer who may have forgot to ask for that deckset of whatever you've been gaming with.
