That massive, gleaming steel fist crashing through the bold red-and-gold Astonishing X-Men logo says everything you need to know about the tone Joss Whedon and John Cassaday were setting with this 2004 run. Colossus's chrome knuckles dominate the entire cover, rendered with striking metallic detail by Cassaday, whose cover work here is genuinely impressive. "Gifted Part Five" promises the kind of raw, unstoppable power the X-Men do best.
