Magik vs Limbo New Mutants commission (NM50)

Normally when I get a history commission, I try to pick a character, battle or scene that sums up an issue. New Mutants 50 is a double sized issue that merges and ties up several plot lines Claremont had going, so 1 piece was never gonna cut it. I love Dave Law’s art and his unique voice, so I got up with him about doing a triptych for the issue, just asking him to look over the issue and decide what he wanted to do from the wealth of options. After the first few he finished that I was loving, I asked if he had scrapped options he wanted to explore. So we ended up with 5 pieces summarizing the issue.

At the beginning of the issue, Magik is waging her seemingly never ending war for control over Limbo, made harder by the transmode virus infecting S’ym and just about everything else. Dave did a stellar job capturing the enormity of her situation in this first piece.
