Superaventuras Marvel #112
"Amanhecer no Kansas" brings together the epic clash of myth and ice in a standout 1991 issue from Editora Abril. Written by Walter Simonson and Estúdio Art & Comics, with art by Sal Buscema and colors by Christie Scheele, this story follows Loki as he faces a rebellion of ice giants seeking to seize the frozen source of the mutant Homem de Gelo—while Thor battles his own inner turmoil and a mysterious enchantment petrifies Asgard. The cover, penciled and inked by Walter Simonson, captures the storm of conflict in bold, dynamic lines.
In "Amanhecer no Kansas," Jo, a young woman trained in stealth and poison by her late mentor Yakamoto, finds herself drawn into a dangerous web after his death at the hands of assassins linked to the extremist group Sol Nascente. With Castle leading a desperate mission to uncover the truth, and a corrupt politician named Hargreaves playing a hidden role, the line between justice and vengeance begins to blur across the dusty plains of Kansas.
In "Que Haja vida...", the arrival of Ken Connel’s son stirs long-buried forces, unleashing a monstrous plant-like entity that emerges from a mysterious crater to terrorize the city. As the son of the Estigma begins to master his evolving powers, he must confront the creature while his father, now powerless and injured in a motorcycle accident, faces his own unraveling.
In "Os Heróis... Sempre Vencem?", Thor faces a terrifying deception when he confronts a human seemingly transformed into the Absorbing Man—only to realize too late it's the original villain, magically disguised. Weakened by Hela’s curse and forced to flee, the God of Thunder is branded a coward by the press, but a desperate act with Mjolnir’s power sends the foe hurtling through a cosmic vortex. The story captures a moment of vulnerability and redemption, where heroism isn't measured by victory alone.
In "Obra Inacabada," the elves of another realm descend upon Earth, fearing Thor’s power and the deadly potential of the metal he wields—his greatest weakness. They awaken an ancient warrior to challenge him, while Loki manipulates the Frost Giants, capturing the Man of Ice to fuel a freezing machine that empowers his allies. Thor, forging with fierce determination, is suddenly ambushed and overwhelmed—only to be spared by Loki’s unexpected intervention.
In "Traição," the frozen fury of the Ice Giants erupts against Loki as they storm his castle, seeking the Source of Ice—mutant Jo—and vengeance against their former master. Though Loki stands alone against the onslaught, Thor’s return brings a moment of unexpected courage that reignites his brother’s shattered will, while in Asgard, a mysterious spell petrifies all in a silent, frozen stillness.
