At the bottom in big, it says "Masked Magician" in katakana.

"Magician" in katakana also appears in the top-right corner, but I don't have my kanji dictionary so I can't read the rest.

Very hard to make out the characters...
Perhaps the top says "覆面マジシャン大暴露" ? Not really sure if that's it, though.

If so, it means something like "Masked Magician's Big Reveal"

Sorry, I meant the katakana above "The Masked Magician" But the other helps too!

In white with red background it looks like "今後フ..." the last character I just can't make out.

So far it's something about the future. Perhaps this is teaser line like "Coming up:" I'm really not sure.

So yeah if you're looking to do research on this, it looks like they use two different terms for the magician.

"マジシャン" simply means "magician" but "masked" can be done in at least two different ways according to your screenshot.

"Masked" can be rendered as either "マスク" or "覆面"

So I'd search for both "マスクマジシャン" and "覆面マジシャン"
The first term, "マスクマジシャン," is a phonetic rendering of the English term "Masked Magician" and the second term, "覆面マジシャン," is an actual translation. It appears that both terms are used in the press.
