If I recall right, the nicer pics of "evil Sara" - are in the climatic issue of the arc. No real process though, it's more of a "poof" thing. Only process to be had is Sara's personality shifting slowly.

Aha, Thanks.

When they found Glissa, since the Phyrexian mind tends to assimilate or corrupt what it does not see as its own, they inevitably corrupted her.

Since then, she became the voice of Vorinclex, Voice of Hunger, the Green-colored Phyrexian Praetor (the five suns of Mirrodin changed the Phyrexians to match the five different colors of Magic). Even though she still has a deep-seated hatred for artefacts, she now uses it against her own kind.

In the end, because of Mirrodin's liability of metal, most, if not all of the Plane and its inhabitants were assimilated, corrupted or destroyed by the Phyrexians. Mirrodin became New Phyrexia, yet the five different factions, due to their colors, now have an enemy of their own to deal with: themselves.

My goodness, thank you. Where does all that information come from? Is it just background for the card game, or are there books or comics that cover all this?
