Ka-Zar #15

The cover of this July 1998 issue says it all — Ka-Zar, his long blond hair matted and a bandage wrapped across his eyes, slumps vulnerably against a rocky surface while a dark, looming armored figure — the Punisher — bears down on him from above. The tagline "Blind… Alone… and Stalked by the Punisher!" frames the stakes with real menace, putting Marvel's Savage Land lord in as desperate a position as we've ever seen him. With Christopher Priest writing and Kenny Martinez and Anibal Rodriguez on art, this is a compelling chapter in Ka-Zar's mid-'90s series that leans hard into raw, grounded tension.
