Man-Thing #8
In "In the Waters of Eternity...: Part 2," Ted Sallis, Ellen, and Namor journey to pre-Cataclysm Atlantis, where they meet the enigmatic Cleito. She offers them the Nexus fragment and a series of cryptic warnings before the city’s collapse forces their return to the present—where Ted’s transformation into the Man-Thing is complete. Written by John Marc DeMatteis and illustrated by Liam R. Sharp, with colors by Christie Scheele and letters by Jon Babcock, the cover by Liam Sharp captures the moment’s weight and wonder.
