Viz Communications has announced that the first issue of its Shonen Jump manga anthology, due out in November, will include an 'ultra-rare' Yu Gi Oh card. The card will be available only in the magazine and will be tournament legal. It will be produced using a 'special technology' by Konami (worldwide Yu Gi Oh CCG producer) and Upper Deck (the U.S. licensee). This will cement the connection between the magazine and the hottest new anime (see 'Shonen Jump Line-up Tied to TV') and CCG property of the year, and further broaden the potential universe of purchasers.
