The Avengers #139
In "Prescription: Violence!", the Avengers rally around a comatose Wasp as Whirlwind strikes from the shadows, targeting her while she’s vulnerable. Steve Englehart’s tense script and George Tuska’s dynamic art bring the stakes to a fever pitch, as Yellowjacket finally uncovers the truth behind Whirlwind’s elusive pattern. Gil Kane’s cover captures the moment’s dread, with inks by John Romita adding sharp intensity.
