Controversy

The Peoples Republic of China does not allow the public display of human or humanoid skeletons and Magic cards are no exception. For this reason the artwork of many chinese-language cards depicting skeletons, though not necessarily of the type skeleton, have to be altered to make it possible to sell, the product.
