As the adventure continues, the Planeswalker heroes Kaya, Vraska, and Ral Zarek return home to Ravnica... and are immediately taken captive! Now a new trio of Planeswalkers must find their way past the barrier preventing planeswalking in or out of Ravnica to save the others: the combustible Chandra Nalaar, monster tracker Garruk Wildspeaker, and athlete Niko Aris, whose explorations across the planes are just beginning.

Their journey will take them from Dominaria, to Zendikar, Eldraine, Innistrad, and New Capenna before they at last find a way into Ravnica. Once there, they'll have to liberate the plane from the megalomaniacal metal mage, Tezzeret, who seeks to bend powerful sites of magic across the Multiverse, and the powers of a Planeswalker making her first appearance in MAGIC comics-Isona Maive-to his goal: the power to cast the Elderspell and make himself a god.

FIRST SECOND BOOKS
YOUTH GROUP GN
(W) Jordan Morris (A/CA) Bowen McCurdy
When goth Kay reluctantly agreed to join the youth group at Stone Mission Church in Orange County California, she expected the Jesus talk and the dorky singalongs and the colorful posters about dodging temptation. What she didn't expect was to stumble on her youth group leaders, Meg and Cortland, in the middle of a real-deal exorcism. Turns out they're both soldiers in a secret organization of demon hunters in a war that's heating up, and even if Kay wanted to stay on the sidelines, she doesn't have a choice-she's a "Blight," a human who demons can't possess, and apparently that's made her a target. Will Kay find her place in a world that's so much more God-fearing and monster-fighting than what she's used to? Or will a pack of demons use Blights like Kay as the key to starting some real big trouble?
