Midnight Suns #5

Psylocke commands the foreground of this 2023 Marvel issue, her purple-gloved hand thrust outward amid swirling green energy as her red eyes hint at something more than telepathy at work. Surrounding her is the full Midnight Suns roster — a glowering Magik with her Soul Sword, Blade wielding twin red blades, Agatha Harkness, and a figure crackling with electrical wire in the lower corner, all framed against a fiery skull looming in the background. David Nakayama's cover crackles with tension, making "Smoke and Mirrors" feel like exactly the kind of issue where nothing — and no one — is quite what they seem.
