T.H.U.N.D.E.R. agents

One of the comics that rather shocked me as a kid was the story 'a matter of life and death' from T.H.U.N.D.E.R. agents issue 7. In Holland it was published in a softcover collection.

I was used to innocent batman stories and suddenly was confronted with a hero dying pretty horribly. It might well be one the stories that cemented my fascination with the comic medium.
I have read the original VS version just recently and it surprised me how good it is. Great storytelling. And what I never realized, it's drawn by one of the masters, Steve Ditko.
There's also Mike Sekowsky, George Tuska and Wood art in this issue. Not bad.
