Marvels X #4

Alex Ross's painted cover for this 2020 Marvel series frames an assembled gallery of heroes — Thor roaring at center with hammer raised, Iron Man's arc reactor gleaming just below, Scarlet Witch and Vision looming in the upper corners, and two more figures rounding out the ensemble — all rendered within the bold "X" of the title against stark black. The composition carries that unmistakable Ross gravitas, each face conveying urgency and purpose. With writing duties shared between Ross and Jim Krueger alongside Well-Bee's interior art, Marvels X #4 continues what looks to be a compelling reimagining of Marvel's greatest champions.
