Avengers & X-Men: Axis #6

The cover of Avengers & X-Men: AXIS #6 tells two dramatically different stories at once — in the upper half, the Scarlet Witch and a dark, imposing figure clash amid swirling cosmic energy, while in the lower half a smirking man in white commands the foreground, martini glass in hand, surrounded by a crowd of revelers in a sharp contrast of chaos and decadence. Cover art by Jim Cheung captures this split composition with striking clarity, the bold AXIS logo slashing diagonally across the divide like a fault line between worlds. Book Two: Inversion is clearly living up to its name, and Rick Remender's 2015 Marvel event series shows no signs of losing momentum heading into Chapter 3.
