In "Hell's Heat Wave, Part Two," Frank Miller channels his fury into a blistering commentary on Marvel Comics' business practices, drawing a stark parallel to the Soviet Union in a fiery critique of the company's impact on retailers and distributors. The issue, illustrated with sharp, expressive intensity by Gary Gianni, delivers a provocative, real-world political edge wrapped in the noir aesthetic of The Shadow's world.
