“Beneath The Mask...A Man!”

In "Beneath The Mask...A Man!", Captain Marvel makes a bold move by revealing his identity to the world, waving farewell to Rick Jones before heading to the Denver observatory to start a new chapter. But his quiet moment is interrupted when a criminal, altered by the mysterious Eon Ray, begins tracking him. Written by Scott Edelman and illustrated by Pat Broderick, with inks by Bob Wiacek and colors by Irene Vartanoff, the issue’s cover by Pat Broderick and Bob McLeod captures the moment with striking clarity.
