I'm pulling away from the curb because I had to drop my son off today at college.

We all know what that means. It's another drive to work.

Okay, so today I'm talking all about outlaws of Thunder Junction.

So today is the story of the vision design of the set.

I led the vision design.

So, very familiar with the story.

So let's get into it.

Okay, so last year in March of the Machine, there was a giant Phorexian war that forever

changed the cosmology of the multiverse.

So one of the reasons we did that was it would allow us to design some sets that we couldn't

design before.

So one of the ideas that we're like, once we did it, one of the questions we asked ourselves

is, okay, what can we now make that we couldn't make before?

So one idea that I was really interested in was sort of what I will call thematic set,

which is imagine if you pick a theme and then because of the Omen Pass,

you're allowed to get people from across the multiverse here.

So you can do something that's sort of a connective tissue theme,

and then you can use the Omen Pass to bring all people of that, or many, many characters of that theme to the same place.

And the theme we wanted to use was actually a theme we almost used in a different set.

So many years ago, we made a set called Magic Origins.

It's probably best known as a set where it had the five founding members of, or the five first members of the Gatewatch.

I guess only four of them were founding.
