Lorna Dane floats with her magnetic powers active in this guide showing how to draw Polaris from X-Men comics. As Magneto’s daughter, she inherited his control over magnetic fields, and her striking green hair has made her visually distinctive among mutants since her debut in 1968. This dynamic hovering pose captures her with arms outstretched, ready to manipulate metal with her formidable abilities.
