i'd like to see this one as a black planeshifted "reprint".

This card has nice flavor, even-though it is out-of-color for green...It's a nice reanimator with nice art as well...

Play this when your opponent has Phage in their graveyard... lol?

Very nice reanimator, and you can use it on your opponent if you honestly want to. All the better due to the off color. 4.5/5

So can I block with the targeted creature, (killing it) then block a different attacker with the returned creature?

@TreeTrunkMaster

How did you come up with that nonsense? There's only one combat phase, so what you're proposing is not possible without something like Savage Beating. Remember kids, there is such a thing as a stupid question!

Now that I think about it, this could get VERY interesting when set on anything with persist or undying (as long as it doesn't have the "wrong" type of counter on it). It's going to come back anyway, but since Reincarnation triggers on it dying, not it staying dead, you get an extra critter in the bargain. Reanimation decks, start your engines...

It's not "out of color" for green. This is the sort of thing green should have had all along, and should have today. Green can do more than have ugly fat tramplers and pointless 1/1 tokens cluttering up the cardtable.

Remind me to never shoot an arrow into the forehead of an orange-skinned old man lest he turn into a scary monster.

Yeah, the effect is decidedly black, but reincarnation is a very green concept... Indeed, I would also like a colourshifted version of this, perhaps with a cheesy name like "mortimorphosis". =P

@Tiggurix: Your wish has been granted. Grim Return in M14 is practically identical.

Crag-Hack is right, though could have been a bit nicer about it. When you block, all blockers have to be declared at the same time- you get just one chance to say who is blocking. So, if you block with a creature and use it to reanimate another creature, the newly reanimated creature won't be able to block.
