Marvel Origins #38

In "Kann nur dein Tod dich retten?", Jack Kirby’s dynamic art brings to life a tense escape as Dragon Man flees with Sue, shielding her from Gorgon’s relentless pursuit—only for a collapsing building, wreckage from Gorgon’s clash with Medusa, to cut off the FV’s pursuit. As the Fackel tracks him down, it’s Sue’s quiet conviction that finally calms Johnny, who still struggles with the weight of his powers. That night, drawn by restless energy, he ventures into the city and stumbles upon Crystal, whose sudden awareness of his abilities sends her fleeing—leading to an unexpected, uncertain connection. The story, written by Stan Lee and Bernd Kronsbein and illustrated by Kirby with inks by Sinnott and colors by Goldberg, captures a pivotal moment in a world where trust is as fragile as flight. Cover by Kirby and Sinnott.
