Ka-Zar #2

In "The Fall of the Red Wizard," Ka-Zar finds himself captured and forced to confront ancient forces in the Savage Land, where the Red Wizard's schemes threaten to unravel the balance of nature. Written by Mike Friedrich and illustrated by Don Heck, with inks by Jack Abel and colors by Linda Lessmann, this 1974 Marvel classic sees Ka-Zar tested by Malgato’s demands and the looming fate of the Sun-God Garokk—while the Fall People’s village falls once more, struck by a triceratops, leaving the question of divine will hanging in the air. The cover by Gil Kane and John Romita captures the tension of the moment with striking intensity.
