Firestorm the Nuclear Man #65

Firestorm squares off against impossible odds in this November 1987 entry from John Ostrander, with cover art by Ross Andru and John Beatty. The cover puts the Nuclear Man dead center in a sniper's crosshairs, his flame-crowned form suspended mid-flight while military jets streak in from below and an explosion billows behind him — all underscored by the tantalizing question: "He's only been alive an hour… so why are they trying to kill him?" It's a genuinely gripping setup that makes "Fallout" hard to put back on the shelf.
