Hi there lit.

So recently they confirmed that the yu gi oh tcg would be getting an archetype based on Dantes inferno in an upcoming booster pack.

So this made curious about the source material.

But while looking uo this book, i see that there are several editions of this book.

Which one would you guys recommend getting?

I've only ever read the John Ciardi translation, but it seemed pretty good.
There's also the Longfellow translation, which I've heard good things about.

Are the new cards just going to be Inferno, or all of the Divine Comedy?

No one knows yet, the pack that features them still needs to come out.

Well, Beatrice is a given, she'll probably be Light based. Dante and Virgil are quite likely, but I don't know how they would fit.
Greyon and Minos come to mind when thinking of monsters.
