Welcome to our new collaboration project! We are excited to introduce the Mantis Playing Cards, an original deck of cards developed by Sean Devine and designed by Manel.Mantis Playing Cards is our first venture into the world of reader-style marked decks. We were immediately hooked when Sean first approached us with the idea for this deck. The vintage feels mixed with the modern mantis twist stood out for us.
Why mantis? An urban legend says: "When you see a mantis, beware of smoke and mirrors." How fitting for a magic deck!
Yes, the Mantis Playing Cards were created for magic. They are a fully marked deck with a reader-style marking system. The cleverly designed markings let you identify the value of any card with a quick glance at its back. Sean, Manel, and our team went over several iterations of the marking system, adjusting it along the way to achieve a balance between deceptiveness and usability. Eventually, we moved the markings to the long side of the cards and next to the border, making them readable in spreads.
From the first sketches, Sean and Manel changed the backs to a subtle one-way design. This feature is well-hidden, but once you find it, it will always be there, allowing you to perform amazing magic tricks using the one-way principle.
We went with 1885 Bicycle faces, redrawn and perfected by Daniel Schneider to complete the deck's vintage feel. We adjusted the court cards' scheme by substituting the usual blue for the same green on the backs.
Manel designed a simple and elegant praying mantis Ace of Spades and a pair of identical Jokers. Thanks to the Jokers, you have duplicates straight out of the box.

Surprised.
Size: 1.7 Fl Oz, Color: White
Okay surprised this is working so well, as based on the packaging the legitimacy felt low with weird spacing and typos. That said… it seems to be working? I prefer scar tape but have a few spots that it’s tricky to keep on and this seems to working great for that. I generally have pretty sensitive skin and thus far this isn’t irritating at all and it is helping to further fade surgical scars. It also does seem like a pretty good value at this price point.

A Dazzling Deep Dive into Power, Fashion, and Iconic Style
Format: Hardcover
Beyoncé: All the Songs – The Story Behind Every Track is far more than a music companion—it’s a fascinating exploration of how sound, image, and identity merge into one of the most powerful artistic brands of our time. What truly elevates this book is how vividly it connects Beyoncé’s music to her visual language—especially her unforgettable, often bold and fetish-inspired costumes.
Throughout her career, Beyoncé has used clothing not just as decoration, but as an extension of control, power, and persona. The book highlights how her stage and visual identities are built around meticulously designed outfits—form-fitting bodysuits, high-gloss materials, thigh-high boots, and sculpted silhouettes that emphasize strength and precision. These looks are not accidental; they are engineered to reinforce themes of dominance, transformation, and self-possession.
There’s a striking duality in many of her costumes—what some might call “fetishistic” elements like latex-like finishes, corsetry, metallic textures, and skin-tight designs are always balanced with elegance and authority. This aligns with her broader artistic identity, often described as combining “the duality between being a woman and a warrior”.
Her wardrobe becomes armor, performance tool, and statement all at once.
The book also captures how her visual storytelling evolves with each era. From the coordinated, handcrafted looks of Destiny’s Child to the high-fashion collaborations with houses like Versace, Balenciaga, and Givenchy, her style continuously pushes boundaries while remaining purposeful. In large-scale performances, her costumes are part of a fully orchestrated spectacle, with multiple transformations reinforcing the narrative of each song.
What makes this book so compelling is that it doesn’t just document songs—it reveals the architecture behind Beyoncé’s entire artistic universe. The costumes, in particular, stand out as a language of their own: controlled, provocative, empowering, and meticulously crafted.
Five stars—an essential, visually rich, and intellectually engaging tribute to one of the most iconic artists of our time.
