Marvel Super-Heroes #61

The cover by Marie Severin and Frank Giacoia puts the tension front and center: a massive, muscular Hulk absorbs a blazing energy blast from the Mandarin, whose ten rings crackle with power as he looms over his green adversary against a stone-walled backdrop. "Ten Rings Hath… the Mandarin!" promises a clash between two of Marvel's most formidable forces, with the story itself crafted by Gary Friedrich, Herb Trimpe, Marie Severin, Syd Shores, and Artie Simek. For 30 cents in 1976, this issue delivers the kind of straightforward, hard-hitting confrontation that made Marvel Super-Heroes a reliable showcase for action-packed storytelling.
