New Mutants #48

The second chapter of "Fight the Future" arrives in this 2012 Marvel entry, with cover art by John Tyler Christopher showcasing the New Mutants team overlaid with an eerie circuit-board pattern — a striking visual suggesting their very bodies may be caught up in some technological threat. The group charges forward in unison, with a dark feline figure to the left, a central female member brandishing a white object, a bandana-wearing teammate, and a glowing figure in the background directing energy skyward. Written by Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning with interior art by Felix Ruiz and colors by Val Staples, this issue keeps the momentum of the three-part arc running at a steady, confident pace.
