“Born Is A Warrior”
"Born Is A Warrior" in Amazing Stories of Suspense #188 (1980) delivers a quirky, pulpy twist on the classic underdog tale, as a scrawny man gains unexpected power from a magic candy bar—only to realize his true strength was hidden all along. Penciled and inked by Marie Severin, the story blends surreal energy with grounded character moments, while Gil Kane’s dynamic cover captures the moment of transformation with bold, expressive flair.
