But we don't care about that.
It's 1972 and we're too busy looking to see which of our favourite Marvel heroes is doing the most to put the awe into August.
The Fantastic Four are still battling the Creature from the Black Lagoon.
That bounder the Grim Reaper's busy putting temptation in the Vision's way.
"You can't let him be killed by Hyde!"
What a fussy woman. Just who DOES she want him killed by?
Gil Kane gives us the clash of steel on steel.
Miracle of miracles, it's a Daredevil story I actually remember.
Mr Fear shows up and...
...
...admittedly, that's all I recall but at least I recall it.
It's one of my favourite Hulk tales as our hero finds himself shrunk to the size of a doll and having to take on the hordes of Hydra.
Never fear. It's Ant-Man to the rescue!
Hooray! It's the Super-Adaptoid - and that kneeling woman who seemed to appear on every cover Gil Kane ever did.
Thor's Ego's getting out of hand.
It's the Super-Adaptoid again - but there's no sign of that kneeling woman.
Kraven makes a monkey out of the Gibbon.
I've only got one of these comics - I feel so inadequate. (Cruising a bit, aren't you, Stevie boy. Let's have something with a bit of meat on the bones.)
ReplyDeleteA bad month for Title heroes falling while their partners do nothing (Cap and Falc; DD and BW)
ReplyDeleteThat's my first-ever Conan comic, bought off the bookstall at Glasgow Queen St. Station ( where I was today, coincidentally). My uncle bought me that issue of Spidey ( I thought the Gibbon was the Next Big Thing) and Astonishing Tales with Ka-zar and the Man-Thing.
