Magic: The Gathering Taps Doctor Who for Marvel’s Fantastic Four Commander Deck

Wizards of the Coast revealed the full decklist for Magic: The Gathering's upcoming Marvel Super Heroes Fantastic Four Commander deck, featuring a notable reprint of the expensive Doctor Who card Quantum Misalignment.

Wizards of the Coast recently pulled back the curtain on the complete decklist for the upcoming Fantastic Four Commander deck, part of Magic: The Gathering’s major collaboration with Marvel Super Heroes. While the set introduces plenty of fresh cards celebrating Marvel history, it also includes a notable reprint that bridges two completely different fandoms. The expensive blue sorcery Quantum Misalignment, originally introduced in the 2023 Doctor Who Commander release, is making a return with brand-new Fantastic Four artwork.

From a mechanical perspective, the card is a powerhouse for commander tables. Quantum Misalignment allows players to create a non-legendary copy of a target creature, letting you double up on massive enter-the-the-battlefield triggers while bypassing the legendary rule. With its built-in Rebound mechanic, you essentially get to cast the spell twice for a single investment. The newly revealed Fantastic Four printing features thematic art of The Thing facing off against an alternate-reality yellow version of himself, blending the sci-fi tone of Doctor Who with Marvel's cosmic family.

The crossover highlights how Wizards of the Coast continues to leverage major intellectual properties to appeal to modern cross-platform players and physical collectors alike. Alongside Quantum Misalignment, the deck also features a reprint of the red sorcery Into the Time Vortex, giving players even more value in a package designed around noncreature spells and flexible commander options. For all the details on the full decklist and card synergies, you can check out the original report on Polygon.
