Meanwhile, unseen by all, Obadiah Stane quietly pulls the strings behind the true mastermind of the attack on Stark Industries. Written by Denny O'Neil and illustrated by Luke McDonnell, with inks by Steve Mitchell and colors by Bob Sharen, the cover by Jean Frisano captures the tension of a hero at his breaking point.
