Product Description
The Man-Thing #11 - Marvel Comics Group, July 1974. This is the tear-stained last issue of the series, marked as a final appearance for this beloved character.
The cover features Man-Thing in his classic grotesque form, colored in vivid red and green, surrounded by dynamic action as various characters react in shock and dismay. Hand-written editorial notes on the cover express the creative team's reluctance to end the series, with writer Steve Gerber and artist John Buscema noting their difficulty in writing the final issue. An insert from Danny Fingeroth on the back cover laments the cancellation, questioning how Doctor Strange could have allowed the character's fate to unfold this way.
This historically significant issue represents the conclusion of an acclaimed run and is accompanied by the original back cover advertisement featuring the Sales Leadership Club's "Prizes or Cash" promotional insert, a time capsule of 1970s youth marketing culture.
