Astonishing X-Men: Ghost Box

A single-issue Marvel story from 2009, Astonishing X-Men: Ghost Box sees writer Warren Ellis and artist Adi Granov explore the eerie concept of "ghost boxes"—mysterious devices that can open doorways to alternate realities. This one-shot expands on the ideas introduced in Ellis's run on the main Astonishing X-Men series, offering a self-contained, science-fiction-tinged X-Men adventure. It matters as a concise, atmospheric showcase of Ellis's knack for high-concept, cosmic-horror-tinged storytelling within the Marvel Universe.
