Get Ready for More MTG Planeswalker Fun This Summer

This summer, BOOM! Studios is bringing more Magic: The Gathering stories to fans. Magic Planeswalkers: Noble is a new 40-page one-shot comic following a combination of the planeswalkers Karn, Ral Zarek, Vraska, and Jace. The new story comes from the writing team of Stephanie Williams (Nubia: Queen of the Amazons), Daniel Warren, and Dave Rapoza (Steve Lichman); artists Alberto Locatelli (Where Starships Go To Die) and Lea Caballero (The Approach); and colorists Arianna Consonni (Magic) and Raúl Angulo (Go Go Power Rangers).

Planeswalkers Karn and Ral Zarek team up to navigate the lonely and often treacherous space between flesh and machine.

Meanwhile, a romantic outing between Vraska and fan-favorite Jace? The circumstances are a bit less than ideal for the burgeoning couple…

Talking about Noble, Williams shared:

Who doesn't love a good adventure with a bit of romance at the core of the story? I know I do, and it was an honor to write a story for two characters who've somehow managed to find each other in a world filled with magic, mayhem, and malevolent monsters.

Warren added:

As a kid growing up, I would collect Magic cards and pour over the artwork for hours, sketching and imagining the lands their creatures and characters came from. It's been a surreal feeling to revisit that same experience with BOOM! and tell a new story in such a unique world.

Rapoza said:

As a Magic: The Gathering artist, I've always wanted the opportunity to further explore the worlds behind the paintings. Having the chance to contribute some of my own sensibilities to the world of Ravnica has been great.

Fans can read Noble on June 14 at their local comic shops or wherever they like to buy comics. The main cover art is courtesy of Jahnoy Lindsay and variants from Frany and Justine Florentino will also be available although the one from Frany is not being made public.
