Dazzler #39

Dazzler faces a desperate moment on this September 1985 cover, as the light-powered mutant is locked in a fierce struggle against a hulking, armored green-and-yellow figure while crackling energy tendrils lash the ground around them — perfectly capturing the story's title, "Deathgrip." Paul Chadwick's pencils and Butch Guice's inks give the confrontation a real kinetic charge, with onlookers visible in the background adding to the sense of high-stakes danger. It's a gripping single image that showcases Dazzler refusing to go down without a fight.
