Each player mills X cards. For each creature card put into a graveyard this way, you create a tapped 2/2 black Zombie creature token. (To mill a card, a player puts the top card of their library into their graveyard.)

Where it came from
Dread Summons first appeared in the Commander 2014 set, released by Wizards of the Coast to expand the popular multiplayer-focused Commander format. This specific iteration, collector number 56, was later reprinted in the 2017 Commander Anthology, a curated collection designed to provide players with access to sought-after decks and iconic cards from the format's earlier years, ensuring the card remained accessible to newer members of the community.
The card was illustrated by Johannes Voss, who leaned into a dark, visceral aesthetic to capture the essence of a black-mana spell that mills libraries and generates zombie tokens. The art is celebrated for its atmospheric tension and fluid, macabre imagery, which has helped the card become a staple for players seeking both mechanical utility and strong thematic resonance in their graveyard-themed decks.
