I originally planned to post a variety of characters from different books week to week, but when this idea for another X-Men themed image popped up I decided not to put it on the back burner. In this illustration, I wanted to keep Kitty's phasing to a minimum, and thought this was just the right amount to show a quiet moment between her and her pet, Lockheed. I'd also wanted to experiment with floor tile patterns so I used the X logo as a starting point and worked around it to pull the composition together.
