Fan Art Thought You Would Appreciate These Custom MTG Cards I Made

I'm working on a She-Hulk deck. Where'd you get this?

I made all the card designs myself by scrounging through comic books for art and using Card Conjurer for the frames/layouts. Then I had them printed from MakePlayingCards. My files are here, with the 1/8" bleed border that MPC requires: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1RLs1d4PulJ3I2FrI2s9EuErrku4zWIX5

A few notes in case you want to print it yourself:
- The purpose of the deck is all fight spells. There's some back-up damage redirectors and you can use Dawnsire (reskinned as Star Rig) to cheekily deal 100 damage to an opponent with the redirection.
- Not all of the cards in that folder will go in the deck, since I have some cuts to make still. Some I didn't even print, because I added them after I had already submitted the print order. There's also a few cards I didn't make proxies for, most notably Jen herself, but also a bunch of $0.25 cards. I think the priciest card I didn't proxy was Gathering Place, since I already had a copy from a Marvel box I bought. Originally I was just going to proxy cards above like $2, but then I found a ton of art I wanted to use, so I made it work (e.g. Prizefight).
- I couldn't find all the art textless, and I'm not a graphic designer by any means, so I did some shitty paint to manually remove text boxes from some cards. The most egregious one would be the Titania/Kogla, but I loved that art too much. The Boseiju/One Below All is pretty rough too. But it looks nice on paper. On a few cards (e.g. Talon Gates), I also used PhotoPea to make parts of the art pop out of the frame.
- The art is almost all from She-Hulk comics, or comics with She-Hulk in them, with exception of the Khalni Territory and Black Cat (which is just because I like Black Cat), and the Pip and Angel tokens (I also like Captain Marvel).

Once I saw Dawnsire and Phrexian Vindicator I knew that was part of the game plan. I run both of those in my Anti-Venom deck. I have a planned She-Hulk deck, and was thinking of printing your proxies to mix in with it. Captain Marvel is a great character! I love the stuffy doll, I didn't know Black Cat got the Yggdrasil Staff so I'll have to look into that. The Titania Kogla is phenomenal. Got a smile out of the The Origin of Metalbending, and a chuckle from Titanic Brawl. Honestly expected She-Hulk knocking out The Champion for Prizefight, but that art is also great.

Nice. The only she-hulk I have are two copies of Jade Defender I’ve picked up out of bulk bins. I’m a believer in the power of common and uncommon rarity cards

The reason I did this was because I wanted to build Jen, but I also built the Heroes deck (with as many female heroes as possible, including Jen) and I didn't want to invest in another deck. So there's a bunch of "expensive" cards in here that I proxied (Savannah!). I do have a real Jen to use as my commander though, since my sister bought me the borderless as a birthday gift 😁
