Provenance

Where it came from

The Detective card is one of the front cards featured in the Jumpstart 2022 release for Magic: The Gathering. These cards were designed to denote the specific theme of each Jumpstart pack, allowing players to quickly identify the contents of their randomized deck. The set was created to provide a streamlined, pick-up-and-play experience, focusing on cohesive mechanical archetypes rather than the complex deck-building requirements of standard formats.

The artwork was provided by Steve Prescott, a prolific illustrator known for his dynamic and character-focused contributions to the game. For this piece, Prescott was tasked with embodying the classic gumshoe aesthetic, utilizing a moody, cinematic visual style that fits the detective theme. The card received praise for its effective communication of theme and its ability to serve as a functional signpost for players interacting with the Jumpstart 2022 product line.
