Magic: The Gathering is getting another round of pop culture crossovers, and this time, Wizards of the Coast is bringing together David Bowie's Labyrinth, Netflix's KPop Demon Hunters, and Marvel Zombies for its Halloween-season Secret Lair release.
The newly announced Corn Maze Superdrop features several limited-edition collections, including three separate Labyrinth drops, a KPop Demon Hunters collection and a Marvel Zombies release focused on Zombie-themed cards.
Unlike some of Magic's darker Halloween releases, the Corn Maze Superdrop takes a more playful approach, mixing nostalgic characters, distinctive artwork, and familiar cards with new crossover treatments.
There are also collections dedicated to artifact lands and Treefolk, giving players something beyond the headline collaborations.
Here's what's included in the MTG Corn Maze Superdrop, which cards stand out, and when you can get your hands on them.

MTG Secret Lair x Jim Henson's Labyrinth: What's Included?
The Labyrinth collaboration is arguably the centrepiece of the Corn Maze Superdrop, with three collections inspired by Jim Henson's 1986 fantasy film.
The standout is Secret Lair x Jim Henson's Labyrinth: Fear Me, Love Me, which focuses on Goblin-themed cards and features David Bowie's Jareth as the Goblin King.
The collection includes Muxus, Goblin Grandee, reimagined as Jareth, alongside Claim the Firstborn, which receives artwork referencing the kidnapping of Toby.
There's also a reprint of Trinisphere, featuring Bowie holding a collection of orbs. While the card isn't an obvious fit for most Goblin-focused decks, its new artwork gives it a distinctive place in the collection.
The second collection, Secret Lair x Jim Henson's Labyrinth: Through the Labyrinth, takes a different approach, focusing heavily on its visual presentation.
The cards feature elaborate artwork inspired by the film, although some designs may be harder to read during gameplay.
One particularly notable inclusion is Leveler, a card that can create potentially devastating interactions when combined with cards such as The Beamtown Bullies or Thassa's Oracle.
For players who enjoy unconventional strategies, the collection offers more than just nostalgic artwork.
KPop Demon Hunters Secret Lair Brings Powerful Cards to MTG
The KPop Demon Hunters collection is another major addition to the Corn Maze Superdrop, bringing the animated film's characters and visual style into Magic.
Beyond the crossover artwork, several of its card selections stand out for their potential interactions in constructed decks.
Among the notable inclusions are Freed from the Real and Underworld Breach, two cards that can support powerful combo strategies.
Underworld Breach is particularly noteworthy given its history in competitive Magic formats, where it has faced bans.
For players who enjoy building combo-focused decks, this collection could offer more than a visual upgrade, although its appeal will ultimately depend on the cards' availability and pricing.

Marvel Zombies Secret Lair Focuses on Zombie-Themed Cards
Marvel's ongoing crossover presence in Magic continues with a Marvel Zombies Secret Lair collection built around Zombie-themed cards.
The concept opens the door to some entertaining character interpretations, including the possibility of Zombie versions of Thor and Scarlet Witch.
However, the collection's appeal appears to lean more heavily towards its Marvel Zombies theme and artwork than offering must-have additions for every Commander player.
For collectors already invested in Marvel's darker universe, the crossover provides another way to bring those characters into Magic. Players primarily interested in competitive value may want to look more closely at the individual card selections before purchasing.
