Marvel Super Heroes Secret Wars Facsimile Edition #9
In "Assault on Galactus!", the X-Men join forces with the assembled heroes in a desperate bid to stop Galactus from devouring Battleworld, as the cosmic entity weakens and turns his hunger toward his own world ship. With Spider-Man adjusting to his new black costume and Dr. Doom making a sudden move to rescue Klaw, the fate of the realm hangs in the balance. Written by Jim Shooter and brought to life by Mike Zeck’s dynamic art, with inks by John Beatty, colors by Christie Scheele, and lettering by Joe Rosen, this Facsimile Edition captures the epic tension of the original with stunning fidelity—its cover by Mike Zeck and Bob McLeod a striking tribute to the landmark issue.
