I found this issue of Woodgod fascinating as a kid, even though I didn't understand what the hell was going on with the whacky narration and the whole "scream" concept. I mean, I recall thinking at the time that it was probably a random word that Woodgod had appropriated and that it's meaning to him was different than how it was normally used, but it was confusing nonetheless. With the additional materials you provided - putting it all in context - it all makes a whole hell of a lot more sense to the adult me now.<br /><br />In addition to Woodgod, I was really liked the design of the floaters in this issue and the hazmat suits worn by the agents. Everything really tied together to create the quintessential weird 1970s sci-fi comic.<br /><br />Thanks again!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7897120082101927069.post-83916564738163444432013-09-19T16:57:44.242-04:002013-09-19T16:57:44.242-04:00wood god had a good start.Ihope he appears again.

I thought you cover...Hey Groovster!<br /> I thought you covered Wood-God already. Other wise I would have asked to do this article on him. I forgot about the interview in FOOM#13. I guess as a teen, I really dug those off beat reject type characters. Wood-God, the 3-D Man,Manphibian,etc.<br /><br />I really dug the art by Keith Giffen/Klaus Jansen & of course Byrne short run on MTU. Bill used Wood-God in the early 80's also in the Hulk. With a group of circus type freak/mutants like himself called the Changelings. Not sure if Marvel ever used him again. I think this would had made a great SF novel even. Minus the other Marvel superheroes. <br /><br />If written more like a genetic engineering gone wrong. Along the lines of Logan's Run, Soylent Green,etc. I hope Marvel starts doing some of their lessner known heroes as movies or TV movies. Love to see this story brought to the big screen or small screen.Mike Mikulovskyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13426364090992151914noreply@blogger.com
