Jack Kirby cover; 4th app of Iron Man; Soviet Spymaster vs. Iron Man
In a suspenseful tale of Cold War espionage, Tony Stark aka Iron Man takes on the Red Barbarian and his agent The Actor, a spy capable of transforming into perfect likenesses of his subjects, everyone from Nikita Khrushchev to Stark himself. In an attempt to steal the plans for Stark Industries’ disintegrator ray, the Actor and Iron Man switch places, and a game of cat and mouse ensues with our golden-armored hero eventually winning the upper hand and causing the assassination of the Actor, in this, his only appearance in Marvel’s rogue’s gallery of villainy. The great Silver Age Kirby cover is a classic, showing Iron Man bursting forth through a wall with Hulkish menace.
