Team America #8

Jan 1983 · Marvel · 0.60 USD; 0.25 GBP; 0.75 CAD
“Trials”

In "Trials," Wolf faces his toughest challenge yet when a humiliating loss in a trial run forces him to prove himself against Monique Areadite, while Honcho disappears on a covert operation in Cairo. Meanwhile, Cowboy and Georgianna’s growing tension sparks a wave of frustration from Wrench, whose patience is wearing thin. Written by Jim Shooter and Bill Mantlo, with dynamic art by Don Perlin and inks by Vince Colletta, this 1983 Marvel issue captures the team at a crossroads—where personal stakes meet mission pressure. The cover by Ed Hannigan and Dave Simons perfectly frames the tension, with a 60-cent price tag that’s a nostalgic reminder of the era.
