Power Man and Iron Fist #69

Power Man and Iron Fist face a volatile standoff on Alan Weiss's cover for issue #69 — a menacing figure clutches what appears to be a detonator amid a chaotic brawl, warning that one more step sends everyone "sky high," while the bold caption beneath reminds us that others have already ignored that threat at their peril. Luke Cage and Iron Fist are in the thick of it, fists and chains flying against a crowd of roughnecks in a scene that crackles with tension and urgency. With Steven Grant and Mary Jo Duffy co-writing and Weiss handling both pencils and inks, this 1981 installment of Marvel's Heroes for Hire looks like a thoroughly entertaining package of action and high stakes.
