Magic: The Gathering has a busy year in 2026, particularly when it pertains to Universes Beyond.
June 2026 will see a Marvel Super Heroes set arrive, and unlike Spider-Man, itâs bringing Commander precons. Weâre still waiting for more information about whatâs in each, but weâll update this page as we hear more. Any youâve got your eye on? Let us know in the comments!
There are four Commander Decks for the Marvel Super Heroes set, following in the footsteps of other Universes Beyond sets like The Lord of the Rings, Warhammer 40,000, and last yearâs Final Fantasy.
Hereâs the lineup, including the brief description on the box of each precon, as well as their color identity.
- Avengers Assemble (Captain America and Nick Fury – Red/White/Blue)
- âGrow your ranks, equipment and countersâ
- Wakanda Forever (Black Panther – Green/White)
- âPower up with artifacts, reign as the Monarchâ
- The Fantastic Four (The titular team – Red/Green/White/Blue)
- âNoncreature spells, protection fieldsâ
- Doom Prevails (Doctor Doom and Loki – Blue/Black/Red)
- âConnive for power, drain lifeâ
Itâs worth noting that Marvelâs Spider-Man, which launched in 2025, didnât get the Commander Deck treatment. Given itâs Magicâs most popular format, weâre unsure if this is Wizards of the Coast correcting that oversight, or if it was always planned this way.
What’s in the Collector’s Edition Commander Decks?
I’m glad you asked! The Marvel Super Heroes Commander Decks come in another, yellow box version. You’re getting functionally the same cards, except these are all foil.
As the name suggests, you’re probably better off storing these in your collection rather than playing with them, but they command a high price because they’re likely to be a limited printing a la Collector Boosters.
The Lay of the Land In Commander Decks 2026 So Far
Commander precons trailed off last year, with the last two being found in Augustâs Edge of Eternities set, with none in Spider-Man and Avatar: The Last Airbender.
Still, Wizards is back onto Commander decks in a big way. Lorwyn Eclipsed has two decks, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles has one, while Secrets of Strixhaven has a whopping five.
Adding in the four from the Marvel Super Heroes set, and youâve got 12 already – with multiple sets still planned for the second half of the year.
By our count, there were 13 in the whole of 2025, so if youâre looking for a way to jump in and play with minimal fuss, this is probably a good year to try your hand.

Where to Buy MTG x Marvel Super Heroes
The highly-anticipated Universes Beyond set Marvel Super Heroes is coming in June, and will be featuring our favorite heroes, villains, locations, and more from the iconic comic books.
It’s out right after Secrets of Strixhaven, and preorders are now live on Amazon, with some boxes already going out of stock. So, I’d act fast if you want to secure the rest of the set on release day.
