just chase ✈️ MC Amsterdam@manacurves.bsky.social · 2w agoHere are some of my guesses for the upcoming unannounced UB sets: 1) *insert -another- Marvel set here* 2) Attack on Titan 3) DC (probably Batman or Justice League) 4) Demon Slayer or Jujutsu Kaisen 5) Dune

There’s a lot of writing and photography for Magic, but not enough examples of them together. +3200 words 37 photographs Call it what you want. www.hipstersofthecoast.com/2026/06/cube...
