Secret Origins #4

Firestorm the Nuclear Man blazes at the center of this 1986 DC entry in the Secret Origins series, rendered in Al Milgrom's energetic pencils and inks — the atomic hero erupts with crackling nuclear energy while two figures are thrown outward by the force of his power. Cover copy teases "How It Began: The Fury of Atomic Fusion Unleashed Creates a Hero for the New Age," making this a great showcase for Gerry Conway, George Tuska, and their collaborators to revisit one of DC's most visually distinctive characters. A secondary tease — "Who Are the Lords of the Ultra Realm?" — adds an extra layer of intrigue to an already compelling package.
