In this episode, IT'S CLOBBERIN' TIME as we kick off a two-part look at one of Marvel Comics' most storied traditions: epic slugfests between the Hulk and the Thing! Specifically, the first two face-offs between these fearsome foes in Fantastic Four #12 and #25-26, by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby!
First, everyone's on their worst behavior as General Thaddeus "Thunderbolt" Ross enlists the FF's aid in subduing the Hulk, who's accused of sabotaging a military experiment!
Then, with his teammates sidelined, it's up to Ben to stop the angry green goliath from rampaging across New York City, in a knock-down drag-out brawl guest starring the Mighty Avengers!
Can the ever-lovin' blue-eyed Thing prevail against the jade giant? And can these stories go the distance in a title match against ... The Comics Canon?
In This Episode:
· A literal card-carrying communist
· How pretty young ladies can help their men
· "Aunt Petunia was pretty hardcore!"
· Giant-Man's pill problem
· What If? Season 2 and Echo
· Doctor Who: The Angels Take Manhattan
· Marvel Two-in-One #46
· Curt introduces an unscheduled order of business
Join us in two weeks as we polish off this two-parter with a matchup of more recent vintage: The Thing vs. The Immortal Hulk from Fantastic Four (Vol. 6) #12-13!
