The Demon #5

The Demon faces an overwhelming supernatural threat in this January 1973 DC issue, with the fiery-lettered cover by Jack Kirby (inked by Mike Royer) promising a confrontation with an evil witch whose powers "stagger the mind and freeze the soul." The cover scene is a kinetic cascade of chaos — Etrigan in his red-and-yellow costume tumbling backward amid explosions, a long-haired witch conjuring crackling energy, and a massive rock-wielding brute looming above them all against a dramatic purple sky. "Merlin's Word… Demon's Wrath!" is a title that hints at high-stakes mystical conflict, and Kirby's dynamic composition makes it clear that only the Demon himself would dare step into this supernatural storm.
