In "Hungry Killer," bomb squad lieutenant Dan Croft faces a deadly race against time when he must defuse a ticking bomb just as a speeding subway train bears down on him. Written by Ken Fitch and brought to life by Ross Andru’s dynamic art and Mike Esposito’s sharp inks, this tense thriller delivers edge-of-your-seat suspense. The cover by Don Heck captures the moment’s dread with bold, striking lines.

Jim CraigLillian WeldMaharaja of BandorShum

Jim Craig, a wild animal collector, accepts a dangerous wager from the Maharaja of Bandor: capture a man-eating tiger alive, and he'll receive both the beast and a prized leopard. What Craig doesn't know is that the tiger became a killer only after being wounded by bounty hunters, and his desperation for food has made him far more lethal than any ordinary beast. Trapped in a pit with six hundred pounds of starving fury, Craig must rely on his wits and nerve to survive an encounter that tests the limits of human endurance.

Hugh NortonSally NortonWayde Crandal

When oil well rival Wayde Crandal strikes it rich with his own gusher, he earns the enmity of the ruthless Hugh Norton—who sees the young wildcatter not just as competition, but as a threat to his hold over his daughter Sally. As Norton's sabotage escalates from hired dynamiters to outright destruction, a catastrophic fire spreads across the oil fields, and Crandal finds himself scaling a burning platform with a volatile bottle of nitroglycerin, face-to-face with the unconscious man who's tried to ruin him. His choice in those moments will test whether ambition and revenge matter more than doing what's right.
