A litany of characters have wielded Mjolnir in Marvel Comics, including Steve Rogers, also known as Captain America. However, while Steve Rogers wasn't Captain America at the time that he lifted Mjolnir in Thor #390 by Tom DeFalco and Ron Frenz (he was operating under the name 'The Captain,' as one does), the Marvel Cinematic Universe bestowed Captain America with the iconic weapon in the fight against Thanos in Avengers: Endgame. As one of the most enduring moments in the MCU, it isn't surprising that Magic: The Gathering would want to give fans the opportunity to recreate it with the Marvel Super Heroes set. 

One of the cards in the Magic: The Gathering x Marvel Super Heroes set is Mjolnir, Hammer of Thor, a legendary artifact. You'll notice that it is Equip worthy, meaning any creature is worthy so long as they are a legendary non-Villain that is red, white, or both.  

We already know that Captain America, Super Soldier is a white Legendary creature Hero, so he'll have the chance to throw some Uru around in the set. But who else is worthy? So far, that would be The Sentry (white), Invisible Woman (white), Agent Phil Coulson (white), Quicksilver (red), Human Torch (red), Photon (red/white), Scarlet Witch (red), and Captain Marvel (red/white). Agent Coulson being in this pool of heroes is hilarious. 

So what will you do? Keep Thor with Mjolnir, or give it to Agent Coulson? The choice is yours when Magic: The Gathering x Marvel Super Heroes drops on June 26, 2026.
