Firestorm the Nuclear Man #72

Firestorm the Nuclear Man finds his flame-crowned form locked in fierce aerial combat with the massive, clawed Zuggernaut — a hulking purple creature bristling with menace — high above what appears to be a Moscow skyline complete with distinctive onion-domed spires. The cover art by Joe Brozowski and inkers Sam de la Rosa and Keith Wilson captures the collision of nuclear-powered heroism against an unmistakably Cold War backdrop, giving this June 1988 issue a genuinely dramatic international flavor. With John Ostrander at the helm and a story titled "Return of the Zuggernaut," this is the kind of issue that reminds you why Firestorm's run could deliver such satisfying, globe-spanning adventure.
