In Suspense #101, “Of Maestro and Man,” a former impresario turned boxing manager spirals into obsession after gambling debts force him to sell his only fighter, Ricky Martin, to a crooked promoter. But when Ricky announces he’s quitting the ring to marry and start a new life, the Maestro’s grip on reality begins to slip. What follows is a tense, steam-filled descent into betrayal and madness, as the Maestro hatches a chilling plan to ensure Ricky’s career—and life—end on his terms. A brooding tale of control, loss, and one man’s tragic finale.
