“The Big Top Barter Resolution”

In "The Big Top Barter Resolution," Dum Dum Dugan finds himself in a high-stakes showdown over the fate of his beloved circus, lost in a bet at Sabbath's casino, with Spencer Keene scheming to claim it through shady tactics. Written by Len Wein, Howard Chaykin, and David Michelinie, with art by Howard Chaykin and Terry Austin, and colors by Glynis Wein, this 1980 Marvel Premiere tale blends wartime nostalgia with circus intrigue, all wrapped in a cover by Howard Chaykin and Terry Austin.
