“Ghost Box part 5”

Storm dominates this striking 2009 cover, rendered in Simone Bianchi and Andrea Silvestri's gorgeously detailed linework — her white hair whipping through crackling lightning bolts, the X-Men medallion at her chest glowing with quiet authority. A second, ghostly figure of Storm looms behind her, creating an eerie doubling effect that feels perfectly attuned to the "Ghost Box" arc's fifth chapter. Warren Ellis's run here consistently pushed the X-Men into atmospheric, high-stakes territory, and this cover captures that mood with real elegance.
