A career-long contributor

Miki Tanaka has illustrated for the TCG since the Fossil set in the game's first year, amassing one of the largest bodies of work of any artist — more than 200 cards across nearly every era.

A vintage anchor

Much of her early output lands in the collectible e-Card sets, making her a familiar credit for fans of the WOTC and early-2000s era.

Build a binder page

Tanaka's run reaches from the WOTC era to today, so a Tanaka page can double as a timeline of the TCG itself — pair an old e-Card-era card with a recent one.

Collector tip

Her early work runs through the prized e-Card sets (Expedition, Aquapolis, Skyridge), so her credit can point you toward some highly collectible vintage cards.
