MAGIC FROM THE PAST
Back in 1994, Nalathni Dragon—Michael’s first and only Magic: The Gathering card—caused waves in the world of collectible card games when it was unveiled at Dragon Con. As the first promotional giveaway from Wizards of the Coast, it hit at a time when Magic cards were in high demand and short supply, fueling a collector frenzy. Bowing to demand, Wizards of the Coast eventually included the card in Duelist magazine, allowing fans who couldn’t attend the convention to collect this high sought after card.
For decades, fans have inquired about the original art for Nalathni Dragon, but because Michael composed the image digitally no original artwork exists
