Sonic the Hedgehog Races Into the MAGIC: THE GATHERING Multiverse — GeekTyrant

Geek Tyrant30-06-2025
Sonic is trading in Chaos Emeralds for mana crystals. Hasbro's Magic: The Gathering is speeding into a new crossover with SEGA's Sonic the Hedgehog , and the results are a nostalgic mashup that fans of both franchises didn't see coming, but will definitely want in their decks.
This team-up is happening through Magic's 'Secret Lair' series, which offers limited-edition drops featuring reimagined cards and custom art, outside the usual card cycle.
The new collaboration will be split into three different Secret Lair x Sonic the Hedgehog drops, starting with Friends & Foes, which showcases seven iconic characters from the Sonic universe.
According to Wizards of the Coast, 'This drop features seven new designs that bring the amazing Sonic the Hedgehog characters to life. Wizards of the Coast paired the new card designs with original art, including some from fan-favorite Sonic artists doing their first-ever work for Magic: The Gathering cards.'
The Friends & Foes set includes cards for Sonic himself, Super State Sonic, Shadow the Hedgehog, Miles 'Tails' Prower, Dr. Eggman, Amy Rose, and Knuckles the Echidna. Whether you're racing through Green Hill Zone or building the ultimate mana curve, there's a character to match your strategy (or your personality).
Each card set will be available in two formats: standard ($29.99) and foil ($39.99). Fans can pick them up on MagicSecretLair.com starting July 14 at 9 a.m. PT. As always with Secret Lair, these are time-limited and won't be printed again, so collectors and players alike will want to act fast—just like Sonic.
This isn't the first time Magic has blurred the lines between tabletop and video game worlds. The Sonic set follows closely behind their recent collaboration with Square Enix on a full card collection based on the Final Fantasy franchise. Magic: The Gathering continues to expand its multiverse in surprising ways, and this Sonic crossover feels like a fun, fast, and fitting next step.
So whether you're tapping lands or charging through loops, Sonic is about to bring some serious speed—and style—to your next Magic match.

Are Christine Baranski and King Princess dating? Here's why fans & Hannah Einbender are convinced

'Love is love,' according to King Princess, who wrote that in the caption of a photo of herself and her Nine Perfect Strangers co-star Christine Baranski — a post that is adding fuel to the fire of speculation that the duo are dating, at least according to every sapphic on social media. This post did not fly under the radar with fans, who immediately clocked it and began celebrating, including actor Hannah Einbender, who reposted the photo with a caption of her own: 'do i even need to say it,' wrote the Hacks star. King Princess's post comes on the heels of months of sapphics online speculating about the duo, who frequently appear cozy posing together on the red carpet. The two first met on the set of Nine Perfect Strangers, and their connection is one that King Princess has described as a 'mind meld.' In that same interview, the two joked about 'their first date.' 'Our first date—let's give them something to talk about,' joked Baranski. 'We actually got dressed up and finally had dinner. I remember we went to this chic, French-y watering hole. We sat at the bar, ordered our martinis, and suddenly we're talking about our grandmothers who deeply affected and influenced our lives. I think that's where we profoundly bonded.' Bruce Glikas/WireImage King Princess and Christine Baranski pose at the gala re-opening night of "Mamma Mia" on Broadway at the Winter Garden Theatre on August 18, 2025 in New York City. This week, they took their bond to New York for a performance of Mamma Mia, where they were photographed holding hands. It was this photo that King Princess reposted, leading many to believe that the couple had just officially hard-launched their age-gap romance. This isn't the first time the two have attended Broadway performances together; previously, they attended a showing of Oh, Mary! last August. Bruce Glikas/WireImage King Princess and Christine Baranski pose backstage at the hit play "Oh, Mary!" on Broadway at The Lyceum Theatre. Whether or not King Princess is just having fun with the speculation or if this is a real relationship, we support seeing these two together in any MPTF Hannah Einbinder, King Princess, and Christine Baranski attend MPTF's 18th Annual Evening Before the Emmys at Century Park.

Spirit Halloween Has Made the Most Affordable ‘Jurassic Park' Goggles Replica We've Seen

The iconic T. rex escape scene is seared into the collective core memory of Jurassic Park fans. Steven Spielberg's blockbuster franchise is full of memorable moments, from the jiggling water to the lawyer running to the bathroom. But if you, like me, had the film as one of your earliest and most life-changing cinema-going experiences, there's not a detail forgotten—especially not the goggles. You know the ones that Tim grabs and the lawyer tells him to put back, because if they're heavy, 'they're expensive.' And that's indeed been a fact of life for Jurassic fans who longed for their own pair of those iconic goggles: all available replicas have been expensive. Until now, that is. Over 30 years later the wait is now over, as Spirit Halloween has released the highly coveted goggles of our childhood dreams, available at the seasonal spooky retailer's pop-up near you and online. The officially licensed costume prop is $149.99; a price point that is much more reasonable than a custom prop replica or a 1:1 mantlepiece, such as the Chronicle Collectibles release from 2018. These could have saved little me a ton of sleepless nights as a kid if they would have been on hand in addition to a cup of water on my nightstand, which I'd look at to make sure it stayed still. The only catch? They don't detail night-vision capabilities, but hey, it's for dress-up and not actually spotting Rexy in the distance. Take a look at the officially licensed Universal Pictures Jurassic Park goggles, which are so far the closest we'll get to the real thing, and we'll take it! Want more io9 news?

Ayo Edebiri and Don Cheadle to Star in Broadway ‘Proof' Revival

Ayo Edebiri and Don Cheadle will make their Broadway debuts next spring as a father and daughter united by math as well as mental health struggles in a revival of the Pulitzer Prize-winning play 'Proof.' The play, by David Auburn, previously ran on Broadway from October 2000 to January 2003 — an unusually long run for a serious drama. In 2001 it won not only the Pulitzer but also the Tony Award for best play. Set in Chicago, 'Proof' is about a young woman whose father, a well-known mathematician, has died; she is juggling complex relationships with her sister and with one of her father's former students. And those relationships are upended by the discovery of a mathematical proof of uncertain authorship in her father's office. Reviewing an Off Broadway production in 2000, the critic Bruce Weber, writing in The New York Times, deemed it 'an exhilarating and assured new play' and said that it 'turns the esoteric world of higher mathematics literally into a back porch drama, one that is as accessible and compelling as a detective story.' The play has been widely staged, and in 2005 was adapted for film. Edebiri is an Emmy Award winner for her role in the FX series 'The Bear.' Cheadle was nominated for an Academy Award for his work in the 2004 film 'Hotel Rwanda.' The 'Proof' revival will be directed by Thomas Kail, who won a Tony Award for directing 'Hamilton.' It is scheduled to begin previews March 31 and to open April 16 at an unspecified Shubert theater. Mike Bosner ('Beautiful' and 'Shucked') and Kail are the revival's lead producers.
