In "An Incident of Violence," Kirk Randall wields an ancient Egyptian ring that grants him near-invulnerability—so long as he never touches the ground—turning him into a relentless criminal mastermind. Written by Dave Wood and illustrated with sharp precision by Sheldon Moldoff, this 1972 DC thriller blends supernatural intrigue with high-stakes crime. The cover, a striking portrait by Nick Cardy, captures the tension of a man suspended between power and peril.
