West Coast Avengers #28

In "Double-Crossed!", the West Coast Avengers confront the android Zodiac head-on, only to discover a shocking twist: the Zodiac Key, Scorpio's powerful weapon, is no mere tool—it's a sentient entity weary of its master's schemes. Written by Steve Englehart and drawn with sharp precision by Al Milgrom, with Dave Hunt handling inks and Phil DeWalt's colors bringing the action to life, this 1988 issue delivers a bold turn in the team's battle. The cover by Al Milgrom and Mike Machlan captures the tension perfectly.
