The New Mutants #33

In "Against All Odds," the New Mutants face their darkest hour as Storm, Magik, Mirage, and Warlock fight a corrupted Karma and her army of possessed teammates. With Magik teleporting Mirage to confront Karma and Warlock sent to Limbo—where he uncovers painful truths about her past—loyalties are tested and the team’s unity begins to fracture. Written by Chris Claremont and illustrated with striking precision by Steve Leialoha, with colors by Glynis Oliver and letters by Lois Buhalis and Tom Orzechowski, this 1985 issue delivers a tense, emotional escalation in the series’ ongoing struggle. The cover, also by Leialoha, captures the moment’s intensity with stark, dynamic lines.
