When I was around 10, my best friend Jonathan introduced me to Magic: The Gathering.
HE WAS MY NICK FURY.
He recruited me.
30+ years later, we're still playing. 😂 About 10 years ago, I started seriously collecting too.
This escalated quickly.
DECEMBER 18 • NASHVILLE • OPRY MILLS
ERIC TURNS 42.
THE AVENGERS NEED YOU.
Dinner. Arcade. Avengers: Doomsday.
And one critically important mission.
42 FRIENDS. 42 DOOMS. ONE MISSION.
🎁 Your birthday gift to me: your Doctor Doom Magic promo card.
If you join one of our qualifying screenings, the physical Doctor Doom Magic: The Gathering promo card you receive is your birthday gift to me.
No other present needed. 😂
THE PLAN
DECEMBER 18: THE MISSION
🍽️
ASSEMBLE
Dinner • Opry Mills
Location TBD.
🎬
BATTLE
AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY
4DX FULL?
SQUAD B — SCREENX • 9:50 PM
Same theater. Only 30 minutes earlier.
We'll all do dinner + arcade together before splitting into our Avengers squads.
BUY 9:50 SCREENX TICKET⚠️ ONE IMPORTANT STEP
You'll need a free Regal Crown Club account to qualify for the Doctor Doom promo.
If you don't already have one, create it with your email when purchasing your ticket.
That's it.
WHY THIS IS HAPPENING
THIS HAS BEEN BUILDING FOR 30+ YEARS.
THEN MARVEL GOT INVOLVED.
I'm also a massive Marvel/MCU nerd. So when Avengers: Doomsday + Magic + a special Doctor Doom card somehow collided with my 42nd birthday weekend...
THIS WAS CLEARLY FATE.
THE 42 DOOM MISSION
THE WORLD HAS A DOOM PROBLEM.
Fortunately, we've assembled a team.
DOOMS PLEDGED
02 / 42
THE MISSION IS SIMPLE:
=
1 AVENGER
+
1 MOVIE TICKET
+
1 DOCTOR DOOM PROMO CARD GIVEN TO ERIC
= 1 DOOM DEFEATED.
Your Doctor Doom Magic promo card is your birthday gift to me. No other present required. All defeated Dooms will be permanently contained in my Magic collection. For the safety of humanity.
WE NEED REINFORCEMENTS.
Bring your friends. Bring another Marvel nerd. Bring another Magic nerd. Bring someone I've never met.
Every Avenger can recruit an Avenger.
NOT IN NASHVILLE?
If you're elsewhere and attend a qualifying screening offering the same promo, you can join remotely and pledge your Doom too.
THE REAL MISSION
Honestly, I just want to spend my 42nd birthday having an absurdly fun night with some great people.
Dinner. Arcade. Avengers. Friends.
The 42 Doctor Dooms are simply critical to the continued survival of humanity.
