New Mutants Dead Souls #2

Issue two of this 2018 limited series drops the New Mutants into a brutal snowswept landscape, where a massive blue-skinned brute — fur-collared, red-eyed, and swinging a fearsome spiked mace — bears down on the team with terrifying force. Below him, the group stands its ground: a figure in a duster brandishing a glowing sword, a bare-chested powerhouse ready to brawl, and several teammates — including one in red-tinted goggles — bracing against the blizzard. With Rosenberg, Gorham, and Garland shaping this series, New Mutants: Dead Souls is shaping up to be one of 2018's most compelling takes on Marvel's beloved young mutants facing threats that are equal parts physical and supernatural.
