Starlin was THE FAVORITE in the Bronze Age.., I had to purchase Marvel Feature 11 (first Thing team-up mag). Awesome cover..!!!
ReplyDeleteI remember being in high school when Jim Starlin burst onto the scene. His revitalization of Captain Marvel and intro of Master of Kung Fu was the foreshadowing of a massive influx of new talent into comics during the Groovy Age. I always loved the output of cosmic Jim Starlin, especially his masterpieces Avengers Annual # 7 and Marvel Two - In - One Annual # 2 (It also didn't hurt that both aforementioned classics were inked by Joe Rubinstein).
ReplyDeleteI love the way that even The Beast's logo is furry.
