Dazzler #21

This special double-size issue of Dazzler makes an immediate impression with a striking, photography-inspired cover by Eliot R. Brown — Dazzler herself rendered in silhouette against pure black, her outstretched hands blazing with twin spheres of light that cast her in an otherworldly glow. The tagline promises that "the shameful secret of Dazzler's past" will finally be revealed, and the story within — "Alison Blaire, This Is Your Life!" — delivers on that tantalizing premise with a full extra-sized chapter. For anyone following Alison Blaire's journey from disco singer to Marvel super-heroine in 1982, this is the issue that digs deeper into the woman behind the light show.
