Hawkman #20

In "Death of the Living Flame," Hawkman #20 (1967) delivers a gripping mystery as Carter Hall, caught in a web of ancient superstition, faces a violent mob during an archaeological dig. Written by Gardner Fox and illustrated with bold precision by Murphy Anderson, the issue sees the winged hero racing to clear his name while uncovering a deeper threat behind the villagers' fury. The cover by Murphy Anderson captures the intensity of the moment, a striking visual that sets the tone for a story where truth is as elusive as the flame that burns at its heart.
