Magic boss Mark Rosewater reveals who is (and isn’t) in its 2026 Avengers set

Magic: The Gathering‘s plunge into the Marvel multiverse began on Sept. 26, with a set of Spider-Man cards kicking off an ongoing collaboration between Wizards of the Coast and the storied comic book publisher. Magic head designer Mark Rosewater has also already confirmed that future Marvel sets were in the works, with the next one coming in 2026. And the inclusion of a Soul Stone card in the Spider-Man collection hinted at plans for an eventual Avengers-level crossover. We assumed it would take a few years to get there, but at MagicCon Atlanta last weekend, Wizards revealed that next year’s Marvel set will jump straight to the big event.
