Power Man #61

Power Man and Iron Fist charge into action on this February 1980 Marvel cover, with Luke Cage in his signature yellow shirt and Iron Fist's green-and-gold costume crackling with chi energy — while a squad of armored opponents closes in from behind. A shadowy, hat-brimmed figure looms in the corner, and the cover copy makes the stakes clear: the Maggia has declared open season on Heroes for Hire, leaving them "Dead on Target." Bob Layton's cover art delivers a punchy, kinetic composition that captures exactly why this street-level partnership was one of Marvel's most compelling duos of the era.
