[[File:Non-canon holofoil stamp.png|thumb|right|Triangular holofoil stamp]] [[File:Negan.png|right|thumb|Secret lair card promoting The Walking Dead tv show.]] In [[2020]], [[Wizards of the Coast]] introduced the concept of [[black-bordered]] '''non-canon''' cards.<ref>{{DailyRef|news/walking-dead-shambles-secret-lair-2020-09-28|The Walking Dead Shambles into Secret Lair|[[Wizards of the Coast]]|September 28, 2020}}</ref> Although non-[[canon]] cards had been published before in [[Silver-bordered|silver border]], the ''[[Secret Lair Drop Series: The Walking Dead]]'' release was the first time that cards from another [[Wikipedia:IP|IP]] appeared in black border outside of the very limited print run of [[Robot Chicken]]. The idea was further expanded upon in the [[Universes Beyond]]-series.<ref name="Voyages">{{DailyRef|news/magics-voyages-universes-beyond-2021-02-25|Magic's Voyages to the Universes Beyond|[[Wizards of the Coast]]|February 25, 2021}}</ref> The fact that a card is not part of the [[Wizards of the Coast]] owned IP world or [[canon]] is indicated by a triangular [[Holofoil stamp|holofoil security stamp]].<ref name="Voyages"/> If needed, [[Wizards of the Coast]] can print a ''Magic'' IP version of these cards with a ''Magic'' name and creative concept/art. [[Oracle]] will identify that they represent the same card and that they should be treated by deck building rules as if they were the same. They can be thought of as functioning identically to the [[Godzilla Series Monster cards|Godzilla skins]].<ref>{{EzTumblr|https://markrosewater.tumblr.com/post/630817826313273344/some-answers|title=Some Answers|October 1, 2020}}</ref><ref>{{YouTubeRef|nER_kb12-No|Weekly MTG - Secret Lair: The Walking Dead|channel=Magic: The Gathering|date=October 2, 2020}}</ref> Non-canon cards were expanded upon in the [[Universes Beyond]] product line. In addition, [[Special Guest]]s are represented through the art style of the set they are included in but they are [[non-canon]] representations and are not intended to actually be on that plane.<ref name="Preview Vegas">{{YouTubeRef|L6TozMnI3Cc|The Preview Panel at MagicCon: Las Vegas 2023|channel=[[Magic: The Gathering]]|date=September 22, 2023}}</ref> ==References== {{Reflist}} [[Category:Cards]] [[Category:Non-canon]]
