Artwork Details

Description1973 Cover art for Fear #13 Featuring The Man-Thing by Rich Buckler and Frank Giacoia. It's early and before his own series, so he's not quite Giant Sized yet, but with plenty of room to grow. Here, Man-Thing rescues Jennifer Kale in her thong, from Thog the Nether Spawn and his demon horde in a tale titled "Where Worlds Collide". It's original art with hand lettering at the bottom, and a STAT at the tradedress with artwork drawn on it so it'll integrate with the rest of the art. Another rare instance where I show off my Man-thing. Happy Halloween 2023!Social/Sharing |

Excellent Buckler/Giacoia goodness! Not only do you get a nice, large image of your Man-Thing which everyone has been salivating for, but also some Good Girl Art thrown in for good measure! The position of the lovely lass in pareticular is really nice and it gives the sensation that with a bit of carelessness, your giant-size Man-Thing might be strong enoug hto tear her apart! Brownie points for the skeleton creeping in at the bottom. Happy Halloween!

Creeptastic. I didn't read this when it was originally published but I did read it a few years later (maybe '77 or '78) when I was still a youngster. The face of that demon in the doorway haunted me at the time and still does 😬.

Fabulous Man-Thing cover! What a fun example and you chose the right day to post it. It's so crowded with goons and creeps but the titular character and striped damsel command the scene

Beautiful Man-Thing cover! The way Man-Thing is holding the girl in his beastly paw reminds me of King Kong holding his beauty with a lovingly protective grip.

Marcus, you know how to throw a party. Had so much laughs reading many of the comments. Your Man-Thing is getting hugely popular around here. Congrats!

Clearly the Comics Code Authority had just given up by 1973 to allow the image next to the logo of Man-Thing shaking his behind to draw in readers.

Very cool '70s Advenure Into Fear cover from Rich Buckler and Frank Giacoia! I love how Bronze Age covers always show the most dramatic scene from the story, kind of like movie trailers do for movies. It's usually an action scene and the more action the better. Fabulous example here!

A Man-Thing creature extravaganza packed with detail! It never goes well if you show up to the Monster Mash uninvited! Also love those skeleton hands at the bottom. This is a fantastic cover.

Nothing like showing off yer Man-Thing and not getting arrested, absolutely love the Buckler/Giacoa cover (but the door demon's not very intimidating in pumps), congrats!

Buckler did some great covers for Marvel in the '70s, and this really is superb - with plenty of the regular cast on display for all the Man-Thing fans. Congrats!
