“Shadows of the Past”

In "Shadows of the Past," James, haunted by the betrayal of his technology being sold to the U.S. Army, confronts the moral weight of his past when he decides to reclaim the suit and the helmet—artifacts born from his earlier work before joining Am-Can. Written and illustrated by John Byrne, this issue dives into personal stakes with the intensity and precision that defined his run, while Terry Austin’s cover captures the tension in bold, dynamic lines.
