Rom #69

Rom #69 finds Marvel's greatest Spaceknight in a stunning predicament — engulfed by the writhing, magenta tendrils of Ego the Living Planet, his armored form nearly swallowed by that vast, churning organic landscape. Two blue-hued figures battle across Ego's alien surface in the background, lending the cover a real sense of desperate, multi-front struggle. Bob Layton's cover art captures the sheer scale of a sentient world as adversary beautifully, and with the interior in the hands of Bill Mantlo and Steve Ditko, issue #69 is a compelling chapter in Rom's cosmic journey.
