In "Threat of the Faceless Creature," the Knights arrive in Detroit to assist Dr. Henderson in his efforts to revive the local auto industry, only to find themselves facing the unsettling presence of Organizer Kadey and his disciplined Blue Belts, who have their own plans for the city’s future. Written by John Broome and brought to life with sharp, dynamic art by Murphy Anderson—both in the interior and on the cover—this 1963 issue blends Cold War-era anxiety with the mysterious, looming threat of an unseen enemy.
