Description

Reed is being treated in hospital for exhaustion, while the Monster of the Lost Lagoon (Mowfus of the Quon, FF #97), who was hiding in a store cupboard looking for medicine for his alien monster wife, kidnapped Sue. Johnny gave chase, but in a classic Scooby Doo lets-split-up manoeuvre, Ben decided to wait in hospital for Reed to regain consciousness. Reed overhears a conversation about Sue�s abduction, and makes a futile attempt to stretch his way to her rescue.

The expressions on Reed�s face are fantastic, and the struggle between Reed and the medical staff is choreographed masterfully by Buscema. The Thing�s face is an art paste-over, the adhesive for which has � ironically � turned the paste-over slightly orange. As if adhesives were truly conscious. Still, it�s almost certainly what Ben would have wanted.

Sticky Marvel goo with consciousness? .... hmmm.... sounds vaguely familiar. Better watch your back if that paste-up suddenly goes missing ;)

Although it looks like Reed could use its help!

:-) Well, I guess it could be psychomagnotheric slime, reacting to Ben's emotions. Or the parasite from Slither. No.. wait... you don't mean... Venom, do you? The stat may already have killed?

I'm surprised the doctor isn't smoking a cigarette while planning how to gaslight his patient. Great movement!

Great page by 2 Marvel heavyweights - Buscema and Sinnott bring us a great example of Marvel story telling! Is Ben's face a stat? I am curious what Big John's first stab looks like. Congrats - another homerun in your wonderful gallery of Marvel greatness!

You can't keep a good superhero man down. Buscema turns a hospital room into an action packed escape scene.

Love this great page from a great run on the FF.

Another fine Buscema page. Love Reed's expression on the bottom left panel and seeing the paste up makes me want to seee what's under it!

I've never taken the stat off to look. Perhaps the head was just too small. But after Rick's suggestion, I'm not sure I dare touch it!

FF pages by the Buscema/Sinnott art team rank above most! Congratulations!

Buscema's run on FF is very good, underrated compared to Kirby's. I think it's a good comic and a good run.

Classic 6-panel layout FF page from Buscema & Sinnott~! Ben's image (and his vintage aging adesive color!) is so sweet and the Reed sequence is also great, especially the bottom 2 panels with the attempt at a stretchy (or sketchy? ha) escape!

Lucky for us the hospital gown is made of unstable molecules like their costumes or we would of seen little Reed? Or big Reed? All I know is if I had Reed's power I be flippin pancakes with that Thing.
