The Grooviest Covers of All Time #2

Another of the grooviest comicbook covers of all time, Giant-Size Super-Stars #1 (and only!). There are plenty of great Thing vs. Hulk covers out there, but this one is different. For once--the Thing is winning! Or is he? Remind Ol' Groove to do an article on GSSS #1 sometime.

There's a lot more to this legendary issue than the fantabulous Rich Buckler/Joe Sinnott cover. But for now, it's enough. Ain't it a beaut?

    Great cover and even greater ish. I loved that red FF suit Torchy used to wear as a tip of the hat to the original Human Torch. And Thing vs. Hulk battles were always immediate classics. Jonathan Gilbert

    I agree 100%! I'll have to dig it out and reread it sometime soon so I can write about it.
