Whoever knows fear BURNS at the touch of... The Man-Thing Appreciation Thread! 1 1

[creaturefan95]

For my 1000th post, I created this topic for those who love Marvel's Man-Thing™ to share their comics featuring the most startling swamp-creature of all! Since I don't have a Savage Tales #1, let me begin with the earliest appearance I do own: Astonishing Tales #12. What you see are only the books I have ready to show off. The rest will have to wait until I can dig them out and scan them. Please, no laughing at your fellow boardies'  Man-Things, Giant-Size or otherwise.

AFAIK, this is the only muck-monster Steranko ever drew:

very, very impressive. Thank you for taking the time to post all those covers.

Awesome 

Man-Thing appreciation thread. I think Adventure into Fear #11 is one of the greatest covers ever.

I wish I had a scan of my Astonishing Tales 12 CGC 9.4.  Never have cracked that sucker out, because I'm thinking "hen's teeth".

Way back when I worked at my LCS, we had an intercom system that went to our storage room next door. Every night, 30 mins before closing, someone would go over to the storage room with a list of books to pull from restock, to replace what sold that day.

As a part of this routine, it was also customary to call over on the intercom, requesting that the person also "pull a giant sized Man-Thing."

This never got old.

I keep my Giant-Sized Man-Thing sheathed for protection, and all my other Man-Things of course...

I have many Man-Thing books-- but oddly enough never have owned a giant sized Man-Thing. It is one of the shortcomings of my collection.

I've always been curious about the thermodynamics of Man Thing's power to burn.

It's acidic in nature and acts as a defense mechanism for mankind's oldest emotion is actually painful to the empath.

He probably spouts triflic acid, which will ignite on contact.

I used to have the #5 Clown story as a Record I believe. Wish I kept it and the Werewolf by Night one
