“Revenge Is a Dish Best Served Cold”

Who Shot Laurel Kent?" demands the bold cover of this 1985 annual, framing the mystery around a silhouetted figure draped across a giant question mark while four stern Legionnaire faces — including a gold-helmeted figure with antenna, a green-skinned hero, a dark-haired woman, and a red-visored man — loom on the surrounding black field like suspects in a lineup. It's a whodunit setup with real tension, rendered with sharp, confident linework by cover artists Keith Giffen and Karl Kesel. A satisfying extra-length read for any Legion fan, with interior work from Paul Levitz and a full creative team bringing "Revenge Is a Dish Best Served Cold" to life.
