The Fury of Firestorm #32

Few matchups in 1985 could raise eyebrows quite like this one — the cover of The Fury of Firestorm #32 promises a collision between Firestorm, the Nuclear Man, and the enigmatic Phantom Stranger, and Rafael Kayanan and Dick Giordano deliver a striking image to match that premise. Firestorm surges forward trailing nuclear energy, while the Phantom Stranger — hat, blue cloak, and all — looms in the foreground as a crackling pink blast connects them against a cosmic, rubble-strewn backdrop. Titled "Ghosts!" and pitting raw atomic power against one of DC's most mysterious figures, this February issue is a genuinely intriguing crossover that science and the supernatural collide to produce.
