Amazing X-Men #1

Nightcrawler takes center stage on this 2014 Marvel NOW! collection, depicted in his swashbuckling red costume and dual swords, leading a full charge of X-Men that includes Storm, Wolverine, Beast, Firestar, Iceman, and Northstar. Ed McGuinness and Dexter Vines bring a kinetic, crowd-pleasing energy to the cover, packing every inch with mutant attitude. Writer Jason Aaron's "The Quest for Nightcrawler" promises exactly the kind of big-hearted, action-driven X-Men adventure that fans of the team's sprawling ensemble days will find hard to resist.
