Where it came from
Lingering Souls was originally released in the 2012 Dark Ascension expansion for Magic: The Gathering. Designed by the development team at Wizards of the Coast, the card was intended to provide a powerful tool for token-based strategies, utilizing the flashback mechanic to offer significant board presence from the graveyard. Its efficient mana cost and ability to generate multiple flying threats quickly established it as a staple in both Standard and Modern formats.
The Friday Night Magic promo version, released later in 2012, features unique, stylized artwork by illustrator Johannes Voss. Voss sought to capture the ethereal and spectral nature of the souls, moving away from the more grounded tone of the original release. This version is highly regarded by collectors for its distinct aesthetic and its status as a tournament-reward card, which was distributed to players participating in local game store events.
