Description

January 1973, Fantastic Four #130, Page #14, John Buscema pencils/Joe Sinnott inks, “Battleground: The Baxter Building”,
Appearance: Frightful Four (Thundra, Sandman, Wizard, Trapster), Appearance: Medusa of the Inhumans.
This issue is the 2nd Appearance of THUNDRA!

This was the sixth issue of Fantastic Four I ever read off the stand back in 1973. It was an incredible storyline written by Roy Thomas, with the Frightful Four, led by Thundra, fighting the Fantastic Four. The Inhumans guest star in this issue. Sue Storm quits the Fantastic Four team in this issue. Pure Nostalgia.

The Frightful Four have just defeated the Thing and Medusa with the help of their newest member Thundra. As the male members gloat over their victory, Thunda begins to feel pity for the Thing. This irks the Sandman, who recalls this sort of sympathy from Medusa before she betrayed their team, and he tries to toss the Thing high in the air so he suffers a fatal fall. Not wishing to see her foe killed, Thundra leaps in and saves Ben's life, then violently jostles the Sandman, warning him from using lethal force against a "defenseless man" again. The Wizard takes control of the situation, reminding them that they need to focus their attention on the Baxter Building and the downfall of the rest of the Fantastic Four.

Another classic page with nice big meaty panels loaded with action. The inks here are especially standout. Bravo!

Filled with the colorful personalities you'd expect out of this classic Marvel era. Even the bad guys act differently from each other and have their own motivations. John Buscema is showing us a great range of these personalities through body language and different perspectives. With so many characters, he keeps them fully engaging to the audience. Sinnott adds the refined emphasis that kept the FF such a strong classic through the years.

Nice page! For a non-FF in action page, it really is an action packed page. I like how Thundra's size is depicted in the final panel too.

Fabulous - a thing of real beauty! A page with the Frightful Four on is always going to be special, but the opening panel is just so full of movement and drama that this page really shines.
