The Uncanny X-Men Omnibus #2

This special double-size Marvel collection brings together an era of X-Men storytelling with real weight and drama. The cover by Stuart Immonen (pencils) and Wade von Grawbadger (inks) is a striking recreation of a tense, cosmic confrontation — Cyclops and a distressed Phoenix struggle amid crumbling stone ruins against a deep purple space backdrop, with the bold declaration "PHOENIX MUST DIE!" blazing across the bottom. Portraits of Storm, Nightcrawler, Colossus, and Wolverine line the masthead, hinting at the full team caught up in whatever desperate situation unfolds within.
