Creatures on the Loose #33

The January 1975 cover — penciled by Gil Kane and John Romita with inks by Klaus Janson and John Romita — sets up a gut-wrenching dilemma: a desperate man holds a gun but can't bring himself to fire at the snarling Man-Wolf, who looms over a terrified blonde woman, because the monster is his own son. That wordless tension practically leaps off the cover, with the speech balloons spelling out the anguish in bold Marvel fashion against a blazing red-and-yellow backdrop. Interior work by David Kraft, Tony Isabella, George Pérez, and Klaus Janson promises the story — titled "Deathgame!" — delivers every bit of the drama that cover teases.
