Fury # 1, a double-sized one-shot published in May 2023, is a 60th-anniversary special that unites both Nick Fury Sr. (the original) and his son Nick Fury Jr. to tackle a new incarnation of the villainous S.C.O.R.P.I.O.. 

The comic blends a modern-day espionage thriller with flashback sequences to different eras of Nick Fury's history, from World War II to the 1960s, utilizing different art styles for each period.
