Catalogue note
A 2024 one-shot marking fifty years of Marvel's Deathlok, centred on the original Luther Manning incarnation and combining new dystopian science-fiction material with historical reflection on the character's 1974 debut. This exact copy is the regular Frank Miller Cover D variant, UPC 75960621024400141, distinct from the separate 1:50 Miller virgin incentive. The issue contains the new stories “Warning Order” and “After Action Review,” a “World of Deathlok” map, and a short historical Deathlok reprint component. The rear cover preserves a contemporary LEGO Star Wars advertisement.
Why this object matters
The Deathlok anniversary combines new stories, a historical reprint and a world map, providing substantive retrospective content beyond the Miller cover. It merits strong 8.0 importance, but a fiftieth-anniversary reproduction and celebration should not carry Gold as if it were the 1974 debut.
Evidence limits: No new physical inspection or collation was performed. Copy-specific conclusions remain limited to the retained catalogue and accession evidence.
