Trivia / Nick Fury, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. (Strange Tales)

• What Could Have Been: Initial concept art by Kirby had Nick Fury as "The Man Called D.E.A.T.H." (Director of External Atomic Threat Headquarters). Marvel eventually used a version of that idea (and some of the art) in a later S.H.I.E.L.D. series, in 2015.
