X-Men #30

In "Wo kein X-Man je gewesen ist!", Deathbird delivers a dire warning to the X-Men: the Phalanx have all but destroyed the Shi'ar Empire after a brutal clash. With the fate of an entire galactic empire at stake, she guides the team to a distant front where their presence might still make a difference—while on Earth, Bastion strikes, capturing Jubilee in a move that threatens to unravel their defenses from within. Written by Scott Lobdell and Reinhard Schweizer, with dynamic art by Joe Madureira and inks by Tim Townsend and Al Milgrom, the issue blends interstellar stakes with urgent ground-level danger. The cover, penciled by Madureira and inked by Townsend, captures the tension of the moment in bold, striking detail.
