“Inside the Furnace!”

In "Inside the Furnace!", set in the year 2145, the world's nations clash not with weapons, but in a high-stakes Olympic competition where victory means economic dominance—nuclear war having become too catastrophic to risk. When the Communist team is caught using a robot to cheat, their disqualification sets off a chain of tension that threatens to unravel the fragile peace. Art by Vic Carrabotta, lettering by Morrie Kuramoto, and a cover by Bill Everett and Carl Burgos.
