“I Was a Guillotine-Age Hero!”

In "I Was a Guillotine-Age Hero!", the Inferior Five find themselves swept into a perilous past when the Crimson Chrysanthemum escapes once more—only to be captured again in their attempt to rescue him. As they narrowly avoid the guillotine, the team makes a desperate leap through time, returning to their own era with only seconds to spare. Written by E. Nelson Bridwell and brought to life by Mike Sekowsky’s dynamic art, with inks by Mike Esposito and lettering by Ira Schnapp, this 1967 adventure blends historical flair with the series’ signature humor and heart. The cover, also by Sekowsky and Esposito, captures the moment of high-stakes tension with bold, expressive detail.
