Description

I remember as a kid, the first time I came across Mr. Sinister was reading the Xmen Inferno arc. He resembled an evil colossus to me, and I was instantly intrigued. Mr. Sinister further became one of my favorite X villians as I watched Xmen TAS. Silvestri has been one of my favorite artists growing up,and he created Essex back in the mutant massacre arc with Claremont. So when I saw a cover by Marc with Sinister, I had to go for it. Doesn't hurt its from one of the best modern Xmen arcs, Messiah complex as well.
