All-New X-Men #38

The spiraling vortex design on this 2015 Marvel issue pulls multiple faces — including a determined young woman at the top and an armored, goggled figure at the lower left — into its golden and teal ribbons, making the Black Vortex's cosmic pull feel genuinely unsettling. Andrea Sorrentino's cover composition is striking, weaving the characters into the swirl itself rather than placing them around it, with Marcelo Maiolo's color work giving the whole piece an eerie, otherworldly glow. Chapter 4 of "The Black Vortex" crossover promises high cosmic stakes, and this cover sets that mood with quiet confidence.
