“Dangerous Part Three”

John Cassaday's cover for Astonishing X-Men #9 is genuinely haunting — a lone figure stands silhouetted against a blazing white circle of light atop an endless field of skulls stretching to the horizon beneath a stark turquoise sky. The image carries enormous weight without a single word of story, letting sheer visual scale do all the talking. Joss Whedon's "Dangerous Part Three" promises the kind of unsettling territory that made this 2005 run so compelling.
