Firestorm #7

In "Upper Hand," Firestorm #7 (2005), Jason finds himself in a dangerous alliance with Luis Salvador, who believes he holds the key to Stevie Golek’s killer. When Jason merges with Luis to break free, the connection spirals beyond control as Luis takes command of the Firestorm matrix and sets off after Bloodhound—leaving Jason’s fate uncertain. Written by Dan Jolley and brought to life by Liam Sharp’s dynamic art, with inks by Andy Lanning, colors by Chris Sotomayor, and lettering by Patrick Brosseau, the issue’s cover by Liam Sharp and Andy Lanning captures the tension in sharp, striking detail.
