The Magic: The Gathering and Marvel crossovers will continue in May when 20 comics will be released with new covers featuring art from Magic cards.
While Magic: The Gathering | Marvel’s Spider-Man included many Booster Fun treatments that incorporated original source material as the art for cards, now the art for cards will grace the covers of actual comics. Twenty comics slated for release in May will use Magic card art, with five coming from Magic: The Gathering | Marvel’s Spider-Man and presumably 15 more with art from Magic: The Gathering | Marvel Super Heroes, which comes out June 26.
The 20 comics will be released throughout May with a handful each week. The titles in bold use the card images listed above in order.

These five are the only covers previewed so far and all use art from Magic: The Gathering | Marvel’s Spider-Man. Artists listed on other covers have illustrations from other cards in that set, so it’s possible more covers come from the first Marvel Universes Beyond offering. However, the announcement does mention more covers will be using art from Magic: The Gathering | Marvel Super Heroes.
Notably, the cover crossovers started with a promo copy of The Amazing Spider-Man #1 using the card image of Amazing Spider-Man given away at Spider-Man: The Final Battle events at WPN stores.
