In "S.H.I.E.L.D. Strikes Out!", Jim Steranko’s dynamic storytelling and art bring a high-stakes clash to life as Jimmy Woo mourns the fallen Suwan, only for the SHIELD Suicide Squad to crash in through the Dreadnought—a massive tunneling machine. With The Claw vanishing into the Space-Time Continuum inside an Infinity Sphere, Nick Fury tracks him using a Pseudo-Elliptoid Wrist Tracer and a prototype Warp-Vest, diving headfirst into the unknown. The cover by Ron Wilson and Frank Giacoia captures the moment’s urgency, while Steranko’s bold visuals and Sinnott’s inks lend the whole mission a relentless, cinematic edge.

In "Armageddon!" from Captain Britain #18 (1977), Jimmy Woo holds the fallen Suwan as SHIELD’s Suicide Squad crashes in through the Dreadnought, a massive tunneling machine. With The Claw vanishing into the Space-Time Continuum via an Infinity Sphere, Fury tracks him using a Pseudo-Elliptoid Wrist Tracer—then dons a Prototype Warp-Vest to follow.

Checkmate
6 pp · Spy

In "Checkmate," SHIELD agent Jimmy Woo is left reeling as the Suicide Squad storms in through the Dreadnought, a massive tunneling machine, just after Suwan’s death. With The Claw vanishing into the Space-Time Continuum inside an Infinity Sphere, Nick Fury tracks him using a Pseudo-Elliptoid Wrist Tracer, donning a Prototype Warp-Vest to pursue him through the rift. What follows is a high-stakes psychic duel across dimensions—until Fury’s victory reveals a shocking truth: the villain was never human, but a machine, part of a far larger scheme orchestrated by Dr. Doom, who has been manipulating events from afar like a master player in a cosmic game.
