Have a spirit on me

Some spirits, of the distilled variety. If you want to use these as tokens I'm gonna have to see some ID.





Here's a high-res PDF if you're inclined to get printy.

Cast Lingering Souls responsibly, everyone.

Bonus extra thingers

Here are a few miscellaneous items:

1. Behold Channel Fireball pro David Ochoa's token card:

... and a closer look:

This is the third card in this series. More to come. Get 'em by placing orders at their store.

2. Hey, I drew an MTG valentine:

The joke was sent to me by Mike Robles who commissioned this drawing to go with it (while simultaneously tearing up Twitter with a precision MTG valentine memestorm).

3. OK, no picture with this one but, just FYI, I'll be at Grand Prix Seattle. Maybe I'll see you there? Maybe I'll notarize your Bingo card?

Circle of Stuff: Green

Next up in my Circle of Stuff series. Here's black, if you missed it. More to come.

Get in the Vault

In case you don't know about Innistrad's party rock, Doug Beyer explains the Helvault for ya.

What's youth culture like on Innistrad? It's got that special mix of hopelessness and bogus authority figures to spawn an incredible underground scene.

Make mine Markov.

Dear Sister,

I trust that you are well and still a player of cards despite your previously expressed (and, as I said before, somewhat blasphemous) feelings on the werewolf mechanic of Innistrad. I have partaken of the checklist cards and find them to be quite sufficient. Ah, but let us not dwell on old rancor.

Rather, I suggest we rejoice at the coming of the so-called Dark Ascension. Many fine preview cards rampage through our lands and I find myself counting the days until the prerelease. In particular I'm looking forward to commanding Sorin, Lord of Innistrad so that I may reveal my freshly-hewn emblem:

Is your excitement similar, sister? Will you join the Markov?

Fondly,
Inkwell Looter

Brother Inkwell,

I would like nothing more than to liberate your teeth with a tire-iron for again trumpeting your flippy-card claptrap while neglecting to ask about mother, father, the crops, the fire damage or my sickly quintuplets. Yet that image does much to stay my wrath. Is it real? How may I gain possession of an emblem such as this? Make with the details or write no more.

Sister,

I assure you, it's as real as Uncle Bruce's third nipple. Sleeved:


With creepy candelabra:


And here's a PDF for your printing pleasure.

From the grotto with love,

Circle of Stuff: Black

The first in a series of images I'm working on illustrating the colors of Magic. There will be five, eh?

Sleigh of the Wicked

Hey, happy holidaze from the Inkwell Looter family to yours!

So, what does this card do? Is it an artifact that taps to give target vampire, werewolf and zombie haste and banding? Is it a creature that taps for "target player gains control of a permanent you control and takes 5 damage"? You probably can do better than that.

And here's the pun spoiler for those not in the know: Slayer of the Wicked.
