In "With a Bang— and a Whimper!", Quicksilver joins forces with the enigmatic Larry Trask to stop a rogue wave of Sentinels from unleashing solar flares that could obliterate Earth’s mutants.

Written by Roy Thomas and brought to life by Rich Buckler’s dynamic art and Joe Sinnott’s sharp inks, this 1972 Marvel classic delivers tension and intrigue from page one, with a cover by Buckler and Sinnott that captures the chaos in bold detail.
