Provenance

Where it came from

The Child of Alara card was originally released as a mythic rare in the Conflux set of Magic: The Gathering in 2009, representing the convergence of the five shards of the Alara plane. This specific version, appearing in the Secret Lair series as card number 1599, serves as a high-end, stylized reprint that highlights the card's role as an iconic board-wiping commander in the popular Commander format. Its design utilizes the distinct visual language of the Secret Lair brand, which often commissions artists to provide alternative, genre-defying interpretations of established game assets.

The artwork for this particular iteration was created by the artist Junji Ito, a master of Japanese horror manga. Ito’s design aesthetic leans heavily into his signature uncanny, grotesque, and atmospheric style, transforming the original entity—a baby-like avatar of planetary destruction—into a haunting, surreal illustration. Upon its release, this version was received with significant acclaim for its seamless fusion of Magic: The Gathering’s fantasy lore with the eerie, detailed linework synonymous with Ito’s body of work.
