Power Pack #38

A massive, wild-eyed figure looms over the scene on this 1988 cover, her enormous hands reaching downward as the young members of Power Pack scramble and struggle below her — the cover tagline makes her identity unmistakable: Molecula, Mistress of Vengeance. The sense of scale and menace is genuinely striking, with the kids looking vulnerable against such an overwhelming threat. Cover pencils by Jon Bogdanove and inks by Hilary Barta give the composition real dramatic punch.
