Exiles #31

This 2003 Marvel series takes a wild interdimensional turn with "Avengers Forever Part 1," kicking off a two-part storyline that promises big things for the dimension-hopping team. The cover — penciled by Clayton Henry and inked by Mark Morales — dominates with a powerfully built blond figure in a gold-and-purple costume, his eyes blazing with pink energy while adamantium claws extend from one fist and an arc-reactor-like device glows at his belt, suggesting a striking fusion of Marvel's mightiest heroes. Judd Winick and Jim Calafiore bring their talents to this alternate-reality adventure, and if the intensity radiating off that cover is any indication, the Exiles are in for quite a confrontation.
