Rom #72

In "When You Wish Upon a Star!", the Beyonder appears at a quiet cabin, offering dreams to Rick, Brandy, and Cindy—each granted a wish that transforms their lives in unexpected ways. Written by Bill Mantlo and illustrated with striking precision by Steve Ditko, this pivotal issue explores the cost of desire as Rick, now cured of cancer, and Brandy, restored as Starshine, face a new challenge when the Beyonder sends them into Limbo to rescue Cindy’s parents. The cover by Kerry Gammill and Kyle Baker captures the surreal moment with haunting clarity.
