Shadowcat Magik soulsword embrace

So this one's a little tricky.  At the time I was commissioned to draw this piece, Magik was dead, twice over.  De-aged to a 7 year old and then killed off by the Legacy Virus.  But Shadowcat had Magik's Soul Sword, so I used that as the conduit link to "revive" her for this bittersweet picture.  Years later Marvel did end up bringing back Magik.  But that's why she is fading away at the bottom of the piece- because she's not really there.
