Item Description

Phantom Monster comes from the very first wave of Magic: a blue 3/3 flier for four mana that appeared in Alpha in 1993 and carried on through Beta, Unlimited and Revised. Its art is by Jesper Myrfors, one of the game's original artists and Magic's first art director, whose moody, painterly style helped set the look of those earliest sets. The flavor text borrows lines from Edgar Allan Poe's poem "The Haunted Palace," the kind of literary flourish that gave the first core sets their peculiar gothic charm.

It is not a card for a modern deck, and that is part of its appeal. A 3/3 flier for four was a respectable threat in 1993, and it still feels right in old-school-style games, early-set cubes and kitchen-table nostalgia decks. For collectors working through the first years of the game, it is a classic blue creature from Unlimited, the white-bordered printing that followed Alpha and Beta in Magic's first year.

This is the Unlimited Edition printing from 1993, collector number 70, illustrated by Jesper Myrfors, with the white border that set Unlimited apart from Alpha and Beta.
