Where it came from
Black Cat was released in 2012 as part of the Dark Ascension expansion for Magic: The Gathering. Set in the gothic horror-inspired plane of Innistrad, the card reflects the expansion's focus on the darker, supernatural elements of the setting, where creatures of the night were frequently depicted as tragic or malevolent forces within the overarching story of the block.
The card was illustrated by Dave Kendall, a long-time contributor to the game known for his atmospheric, gritty aesthetic. Kendall’s design captures the classic superstition surrounding black cats, pairing the creature's simple, feline form with the game's mechanics to represent a lingering curse or bad omen following its demise.
