Luke King #17
In "Sale del infierno un héroe," Lucas, imprisoned for a crime he didn’t commit, takes a risky chance by volunteering for a medical experiment hoping for parole. When the procedure is sabotaged by a brutal guard, he emerges with steel-hard skin—escaping the prison, presumed dead after his bullet-riddled shirt is found. Now driven by vengeance against Stryker, the man who framed him and caused the death of Reva, Lucas begins a relentless pursuit. Written by Archie Goodwin and illustrated by George Tuska with inks by Billy Graham and John Romita, the cover by John Romita captures the moment of his violent rebirth.
