Tales of Suspense #50
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeFrom the earliest days of Marvel's Silver Age comes this 1964 installment of Tales of Suspense, pitting Iron Man against one of his most formidable adversaries. Jack Kirby and George Roussos's cover crackles with tension as a robed, imperious Mandarin lounges in a grand throne while Iron Man blasts back against him amid castle stonework — armored soldiers looming on the stairs behind them. Stan Lee and Don Heck bring "The Hands of the Mandarin!" to life inside, promising a clash where, as the cover boldly declares, Iron Man fights for his life in the castle of a madman.
