Avengers West Coast #83

The massive, fanged visage of the Hyena dominates this June 1992 cover, looming over a struggling hero caught squarely in its jaws while teammates — including a winged figure in flight and several others reacting in alarm below — look on. Herb Trimpe's linework delivers a genuine sense of threat and scale, with the monster's gaping maw framing the entire composition in an unsettling pink-and-white snarl. "The Hyena's Last Laugh" promises a tense chapter for the West Coast Avengers, and this cover makes it very easy to believe things are not going well for Earth's Mightiest Heroes — West Coast division.
