Provenance

Where it came from

Nemesis of Reason was originally released in the 2009 Magic: The Gathering set Alara Reborn. This particular printing, collector number 1302, debuted as part of the Secret Lair Drop Series, a specialized program introduced by Wizards of the Coast in 2019. These drops are curated, limited-time offerings that feature distinct artistic treatments of existing cards, often collaborating with external artists or celebrating specific themes to provide collectors with stylized versions of gameplay staples.

The art for this specific printing was created by artist Aris Kolokontes, whose design leanings emphasize anatomical detail and dark, biological horror. In creating this iteration, Kolokontes focused on a visceral, surreal interpretation of the creature, moving away from traditional fantasy tropes toward a more grotesque, textured aesthetic. The card was well-received within the collector community for its departure from standard set house styles, offering a unique visual identity that distinguishes it as a showcase piece within the Secret Lair catalogue.
