Someone has Captain Atom dead in their sights — the cover by Pat Broderick puts you right in the gunman's perspective, a compact submachine gun leveled point-blank at the silver-skinned hero's chest in an uncomfortably close, almost cinematic composition. It's a striking piece of visual tension from the Bates, Weisman, Broderick, and Smith team that defined this late-'80s DC run. "The Captain's Word Is Law!" promises a story with real stakes, and this November 1988 cover makes it hard not to flip straight to page one.
