Nick Fury, Agent of S.h.i.e.l.d. v1 #2, 1968 -
Jim Steranko's exceptional cover demonstrates what can be accomplished without the overuse of cover blurbs. Like the previous issue, Nick Fury is less prominent and the scale of the two figures is purely metaphorical. The story's double page spread and three splash pages nicely occupy the interior, but it's the silent, multi-paneled scene on page five that stands out. This intimate moment between Nick Fury and his lady friend is artfully paced, culminating in a sexually suggestive gun slipped into its holster. Overall the layouts seem more crowded than usual, and Frank Giacoia's inks impose a little too much of his own style. This story was later reprinted in
Nick Fury v2 #1. This is 2 of 7
