Happy Thanksgiving, Groove-ophiles! Are you ready to chow down! My family traditionally eats pretty early (that way we can get a head start on the leftovers in the evening), so here's our main meal for today! Marvel, DC, and Charlton represented by Steve Gerber, Jim Starlin, Mike Esposito, Charlie Boatner, Marshall Rogers, and Tom Sutton! Tuck that napkin under your chin and let the gorging begin!
From Haunted #20 (November 1974), here's Tom Sutton with a rare full-length shocker! Is it a mountain of meat? A mountain of potatoes? A mountain of veggies? Nope, it's a..."Mountain of Fear!"
From Mystery In Space #111 (June 1980), Charlie Boatner and the late, great Marshall Rogers bring us a few different..."Viewpoints!"
And for the main dish, here's the infamous Iron Man #56 (November 1972) that, legend has it, got writer Steve Gerber and artist Jim Starlin fired from the mag by Stan the Man, himself. Of course, Gerber wrote the next couple issues, and Starlin began his legendary Captain Marvel revamp the very next month...but it does make for good conversation, dunnit? It's "Rasputin's Revenge!" (Which, if you overeat today, could turn out to be very much like Montezuma's Revenge...so be careful out there!)
Okay, baby! Take a nap and come back in six hours for a big ol' dish of leftovers!
