Sleepwalker #32

The cover of Sleepwalker #32 sets a defiant tone right away — a green-skinned villain in a blue costume looms over the rubble, declaring "I'm going to kill you now!", while Sleepwalker, sprawled below with golden-haired energy swirling around him, fires back with a cool "I hope you do!" A serpentine, scaled creature coils in from the right, adding yet another threat to an already crowded battlefield. Cover pencils by Art Nichols and inks by Dick Giordano give the whole confrontation a kinetic, hard-hitting energy that makes "The Fatal Cure!" an intriguing chapter in this underappreciated Marvel series.
