The Fugitive Doctor

Legendary Creature — Time Lord Doctor · {3}{R}{G} · Green/Red commander

When The Fugitive Doctor enters, investigate. Whenever The Fugitive Doctor attacks, you may sacrifice a Clue. When you do, target instant or sorcery card in your graveyard gains flashback {2}{R}{G} until end of turn. (You may cast that card from your graveyard for its flashback cost. Then exile it.)
