The age of heroes returns to the once bleak Marvel Universe. Although not officially part of the poster children in the ads, it can't be the same Age of Heroes without this individual. Newsarama has the alternative cover.
Image analysis and comparison's behind the cut

*squee*
I like how the art captures both her youth, her vitality and maturity. Not some porno bimbo, but an adventurer. (...waits for it....)
Its the return that doesn't have a lot of foreboding, and signals possible renewal and rejuvenation of the characters Kitty interacts with.
On to the comparisons.

There will be comparison's to last years delightful IGN cover of the year, so lets get that out of the way, too.
And of course, it goes without say that this image is referring to this classic shot.
No wait, how did THIS get in here. (Where is the dang *hide* button....)
I am referring to this.
