“The Power of Ka-Zar!”
In "The Power of Ka-Zar!", the wilds of the Savage Land are thrown into chaos as Kraven the Hunter targets Zabu, leaving Ka-Zar unconscious and his loyal companion in peril. Stan Lee and Jack Kirby deliver a pulse-pounding tale of survival and instinct, with Sam Grainger’s inks and Sam Rosen’s lettering adding grit to the action. The cover by Marie Severin and Bill Everett captures the moment of tension with striking detail.
