In "Le gang de la vengeance," New Year's Eve in Times Square erupts into chaos when Thundra issues a bold challenge to the Thing, forcing him to confront her at Shea Stadium—while holding Alicia hostage to guarantee his presence. Written by Roy Thomas and Gerry Conway, with dynamic art by Ramona Fradon and inks by Joe Sinnott, this 1981 issue delivers high-stakes tension and a clash of wills in a moment that feels both urgent and charged with history. The cover by Jean Frisano captures the scene’s electric energy, a striking visual that sets the tone for the conflict to come.
In the electric glow of New Year’s Eve, Thundra stages a dramatic showdown at Shea Stadium, challenging the Thing to a fight that turns Times Square into a battleground—her only demand: Alicia’s safety, held hostage to guarantee his presence.
