#Destroy All Humans. They Can’t Be Regenerated. A Magic: The Gathering Manga

[beneaththetangles]

I often begin this column by noting the wide variety of manga and light novels we’re covering that week, and while I always mean it, this week particularly takes the cake. We’ve got isekai and crossdressing manhwa (got it…); an artbook and a coloring book (wow, cool!); and a Magic: The Gathering-focused romance set in the 90s and a series that combines Madoka Magica with sci-fi (WOH). Check out our thoughts on these diverse series below and let us know what you’re reading!

December 2024 Reading Wrap-Up

I've read eight books this month, and most were entirely neutral to good for me...with one exception. That means that my grand total of books for 2024 was 103, though I only enjoyed somewhere around 30 of them. Anyway, here's the December list:

Religious Text

None applicable.

1/10 - Why Did They Publish This?

Egregores: The Occult Entities That Watch Over Human Destiny | Mark Stavish

Just gonna link this...

2/10 - Trash

None applicable.

3/10 - Meh

None applicable.

4 to 6/10 - Mid-Tier

Seventy-Eight Degrees Of Wisdom: A Tarot Journey To Self-Awareness | Rachel Pollack

I respect what this book has historically done for tarot and tarot reading, but as a standalone book outside of that context, I didn't...enjoy it.

7 to 8/10 - Good With Caveats

Scorpions Of Medical Importance | Hugh L Keegan

A very fascinating book on scorpions from 1980. Despite this, not every scorpion depicted here is deadly. What I thought was most fascinating was the fact that it called the deathstalker (Leiurus quinquestriatus) the only species in Leiurus...because 18 out of 19 of the other ones were only discovered after the book was published. It is pretty outdated as far as listed places with antivenins goes, though.

Scorpions: Plus Other Popular Invertebrates | Jerry G Walls

A decent book on caring for scorpions, considering it goes really in-depth despite only having 88 pages. I did skip over the appendices at the back about other invertebrates though, because while I'm not scared of scorpions, I'm scared of many of the other bugs and arachnids in the back. No thank you.

Garfield Fat Cat 3-Pack, volume 25 | Jim Davis

I picked this one on a whim from the library I work at because I love Garfield comics. Fuck you. The caveat I have for this one is that if you don't enjoy reading 286 pages of mostly-three-panel-comics, it won't be enjoyable. I had fun though.

9/10 - Very Very Good

The Life-Changing Magic Of Tidying Up: The Japanese Art Of Decluttering And Organizing | Marie Kondo

I actually found this book surprisingly helpful??? Which was irritating to me, because I'm always surprised when popular things are actually...good. Though Marie Kondo's theory doesn't work for everyone since it's very focused on how you feel, and if you're struggling to feel anything for any reason, it's not gonna help much. I do think it's very funny that she outright encourages you to send her book away if it doesn't spark joy either. Incredible.

Michelangelo: Paintings, Sculptures, Architecture | Ludwig Goldscheider

This is a series of photographs of many, many of Michelangelo's works, and the quality of the photos are gorgeous. I found this on the free table of the library I work at and enjoyed flipping through and admiring the details.

Destroy All Humans. They Can’t Be Regenerated, volume 1 | Katsura Ise, Takuma Yokota

Yes, yes, this is a new printing of an old Magic: The Gathering manga about players playing the game. I didn't expect the prophecies of Nostradamus to be a major plot point. And I fucking loved it.

10/10 - Unironically Recommend To Everyone

None applicable.

wrong

you know how I wanted a manga about an actual card game? “destroy all humanity. it can’t be regenerated” is a manga about actual Magic the Gathering in 1998

and the matches are coherent, follow tyhe rules, are good magic plays, with real magic decks of the time, and also are narrated like yugioh matches

oh man "destroy all humanity it can't be regenerated" is exactly what I want

Upcoming Magic Expansion Features Alternate Art Version from Yoshitaka Amano and Others

Wizards of the Coast announced early this evening that they would be releasing Japanese alternate-art versions of all 36 planeswalker cards in their upcoming Magic: the Gathering expansion, War of the Spark, featuring illustrations from character designers like the legendary Yoshitaka Amano (Angel’s Egg, Vampire Hunter D, Final Fantasy) and Daisuke Izuka (Fire Emblem, GATE light novels).

  According to Wizards of the Coast, these alternate art versions of the planeswalkers will appear exclusively in Japanese-language booster packs of War of the Spark, which will be distributed worldwide, and in Wizards Play Network promo packs for the Core Set 2020 season. Players hoping to find the alternative art in a Japanese booster pack will have a 50/50 chance of finding one, compared to the standard artwork.

      The collection of new planeswalker art is headlined by Yoshitaka Amano’s rendition of Liliana, Dreadhorde General, a necromancer who is central to the storyline of War of the Spark, having betrayed her team of planeswalkers known as “the Gatewatch�� shortly before the expansion’s storyline begins. Amano is famous for his work on the Final Fantasy series, but has been creating some of the most evocative art in the fantasy world since his career began in the early 1970s. 

     Liliana, Dreadhorde General by Yoshitaka Amano

  This isn’t the first time that Magic has used Japanese artists or “anime-styled” artwork on their cards. In 2010, Wizards of the Coast released a limited run for a Japanese-language release of their Jace vs. Chandra duel deck featuring exclusive artwork from manga author Yoshino Himori. 

     Jace Beleren and Chandra Nalaar by Yoshino Himori

  Hiromi had begun a manga adaptation of The Purifying Fire with the same name earlier that year in Dengeki-Maoh magazine, but even that wasn’t the start of Magic’s relationship with manga: that honor goes to Magic - Urza & Mishra, a December 2000 re-telling of Magic’s first major storyline, known as the Brother’s War.

    Manga covers for Magic - Urza & Mishra and The Purifying Fire

  More recently, Magic: the Gathering made waves in the manga world with a new series serialized in Kadokawa’s Monthly Shōnen Ace called Subete no Jinsei wo Sorera wa Saisei Dekinai, or “Destroy All Humans. They Can’t Be Regenerated.” The manga follows two Japanese teens in the ‘90s as they duel and trade with Magic cards, a different strategy from previous attempts to bring the Magic storyline itself to the medium that’s more in line with other card game adaptations like Yu-Gi-Oh! and Duel Masters.

     Cover art for Destroy All Humanity. They Can’t Be Regenerated.

  War of the Spark comes out worldwide on May 3rd, 2019. Which of the new planeswalker alternate art pieces do you like the best? Let us know in the comments!
