Description

Historic first appearance of Medusa and first app of the Frightful Four team.
Written by Stan Lee and drawn by Jack King Kirby way back in 1965 (the year I was born).

That's Medusa's hair in 3 of the panels.
And, this page has the cover scene(s) with Paste Pot Pete hanging down off Medusa's hair and the Thing handcuffed by paste.

Like seeing "Madam Medusa" called out in panel #1 and the "Frightful Four" called out in panel #4.

Roll call: Wizard, Sandman, Paste Pot Pete, and Madam Medusa

This is the very 1st time the Frightful Four meet the FF/Thing.

Happy to add an older Silver Age historic page to my collection.

Great shot of Benji's big blue eyes! Paste Pot Pete never looked so menacing! Medusa before she was revealed as an Inhuman!
