3. Giant-size Man-Thing v1 #4, 1975 - An unmoving hand smolders while the Man-Thing looks on, entranced by the rising flame. Despite the graphics and text, Frank Brunner delivers one of his potent bronze age covers. Accompanying the main feature is Howard the Duck's first solo tale, continued from events in Man-Thing #1. Brunner does the artwork as well, depicting a cartoon character newly arrived in the real world. There are clear influences of Carl Barks' Donald Duck but presented in a fresh contemporary way (this story was later reprinted in Marvel Treasury #12). Rounding out the book is a fine Steve Ditko reprint from Strange Tales #72. Other artists in this issue include Ron Wilson, Ed Hannigan and Frank Springer. This is 1 of 2 Giant-size Man-Thing issues by Brunner. /// key 1st solo story Howard the Duck / Top 10 Brunner comics / Brunner gallery / original cover / original page 49 / original page 44
