Though I think my favorite scene was with an incredulous Dr. Doom, monitoring Reed's flight: "The abysmal fool is actually destroying himself!"Comicsfanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10064955427593820783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8220285230636101823.post-34439341804340695322012-10-27T03:04:53.109-04:002012-10-27T03:04:53.109-04:00Britt - Those H-B FF cartoons are awesome.

I'd love to see a DVD. <br /><br />Dave - I totally forgot that appearance. Thanks, it is a very cool comic from a period of the FF which often gets overlooked. The art and stories of that time were well above average. <br /><br />Rip OffRip Jaggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09936426877024852134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8220285230636101823.post-52388633885841741882012-10-26T09:38:03.850-04:002012-10-26T09:38:03.850-04:00The first Red Ghost appearance I remember reading ...The first Red Ghost appearance I remember reading was FF 197.

Still sends chills down my spine!Britt Reidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07245579677452948620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8220285230636101823.post-91793569505468835912012-10-26T06:20:09.627-04:002012-10-26T06:20:09.627-04:00They both rock the bald head with the frosty fur w...They both rock the bald head with the frosty fur wings no doubt. I never thought of that. I didn't notice until you mentioned it, that Kragoff's hair tips up in his later renditions as opposed to draping down over his ears. Makes him look more potent...ahem...indeed. <br /><br />Rip OffRip Jaggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09936426877024852134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8220285230636101823.post-64136540946922388282012-10-26T04:36:38.320-04:002012-10-26T04:36:38.320-04:00Late-60s Love Guru Kragoff is the double of Metamo...Late-60s Love Guru Kragoff is the double of Metamorpho's employer, Simon Stagg.Dougiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03965448821892833703noreply@blogger.com
