The Day the Nazis Ruled Latveria, and Other Astonishing Tales!

Of all the glorious splash pages in Astonishing Tales #1-8, this one of the Red Skull turning Latveria into Nazi Nation cracks us up the most. It’s so wrong in so many ways. Red Skull, what were you thinking? Do you have ANY idea what Dr. Doom is going to do to you when he gets home? And why does the decor look like a high school assembly?

But let’s start at the beginning. Long before we used the controversial picture above to sell the set on eBay, Jack Kirby kicked off Astonishing Tales #1 in 1970 with a Ka-Zar story. Ka-zar versus Kraven sounds like a manly jungle free for all, but the tale lacks substance. Each issue, however, provided two stories, and the second one features Dr. Doom. Roy Thomas teams up with artist Wally Wood for several issues of unique stories in the Dr. Doom archives.

After Stan & Jack wrap up the Kraven story, Gerry Conway and Barry Smith tell what may be the greatest Ka-zar story of all time. X-men fans may recall Garokk the Sun God from the days of Chris Claremont and John Byrne’s run. Byrne & Claremont’s tale, one of our favorites, has its roots in the pages of Astonishing Tales. Barry Smith renders the Savage Land and its inhabitants like never before or since. Conway’s tale is so awesome we could almost forgive him for killing Gwen Stacy… but we won’t.

Stan’s brother Larry Lieber takes the reins from Roy Thomas to continue Doom’s adventures, which include revolution, androids, and bringing a mummy back to life. It’s a whacky mix of themes that Wally Wood renders like its still the golden age at EC Comics. And did we mention the Red Skull shows up while Doom is on vacation? Guess what – he turns Latveria into Nazi Nation! What an idiot.

Conway and Smith continue their dramatic portrayal of the Savage Land through several issues. Just look at that splash page!

Just when you are thinking that you might subscribe to a monthly title featuring Dr. Doom drawn by Wally Wood, the creative team begins changing. Gene Colan joins Gerry Conway for a pretty awesome Black Panther story, the goofy gimmick of drilling underground in Wakanda serving as an excuse for a fine character study of the opposing monarchs, Doom and T’Challa.

Herb Trimpe steps in with what seems a Frazetta-inspired pose for Ka-zar, and Colan’s pencils seem to become more flowing and abstract in his next few issues of Doom.

Doom’s mystic battle is one of our favorite examples of Colan’s style, rendered in bold flowing areas of black ink.

But despite these creative high points in these little-known and certainly underrated stories, they might have been too odd for the market at that time. Doom got the axe and the book became Ka-zar’s title for more than a year beginning with the ninth issue. Later, it would become a sort of proving ground for potential characters. Tony Isabella and Dick Ayers would give us “It!” for a few issues, and then Deathlok by Rich Buckler and Doug Moench. The Guardians of the Galaxy also make an appearance, but Marvel axed the whole title after issue #36, six years after it began.
We recently sold our ‘reader’s copies’ set of the first eight issues, but you can usually find Astonishing Tales (Marvel, 1970) in stock. Many well-worn copies exist, so prices on VG+ Marvels from this era remain super cheap. Just try finding VF/NM copies, though, and you will have yourself a collecting challenge!

Abduction, Death, and Rebirth!

Akhenaten, Dr. Doom, Jim Starlin, Marvel Universe The End, Thanos

marvel universe the end 2- (11)

In Marvel Universe The End, Jim Starlin digs into his bag of tricks from the Metamorphosis Odyssey. In this second issue, we witness the partial origin of the bad guy of the series: Akhenaten, an Egyptian pharoah who gets super-powered by aliens. Starlin used a variation of this name and the Egyptian theme for Aknaton, one of the prime movers in the Metamorphosis Odyssey which would later become Dreadstar.

Akhenaten was, for those of you who fell asleep in Ancient Civilizations 101, a real-life ruler of Egypt whom historians still argue over. He also ruled under the name Amenhotep IV. His claim to fame was the alleged installation of sun-god worship as a monotheistic practice nearly 1300 years before the birth of christianity. Reportedly, his polytheistic people were not thrilled with the idea.

Dr. Doom and Thanos aren’t too pleased with Starlin’s version, either.
Let’s have a look!

Collector’s Guide:
– From Marvel Universe The End #2;
– reprinted in Marvel Universe The End Hardcover.
– reprinted in Marvel Universe The End paperback

Dr. Doom, Fantastic Four, If This be Doomsday, John Byrne

Who Could be Playing the Piano so Beautifully? WHO BUT DR. DOOM!!!

Yes, we love it when Dr. Doom takes a moment from sociopathic megalomania to pursue the finer things in life. In this scene from John Byrne’s Fantastic Four, Sue Richards comes across Doom in one of his more artistic moments. Escaping from yet another one of his sick traps and sneaking through his castle, she finds out that Doom can really tickle the ivories!

How does Dr. Doom unwind in his spare time between evil initiatives? Well, we know he likes to have a nice dinner, make his own clothes, compose concertos, and play the piano. But did you know he also likes to paint? He does! And who makes a better model than Layla Miller, one of the nice girls from X-Factor?

Blasting into your reality from the Summer of 1977, it’s a double-sized KISS Super Special from Marvel Comics! This Bronze Age treasure compiles interviews, a discography, and pics of the band with a multi-part Marvel Comics adventure penned by Steve Gerber.

As you appreciate the vivid red ink in this twisted tale, realize that the band mixed their own blood with the red ink at the print shop. If you own this book, you really do own a piece of KISS! Now THAT is Rock’n’Roll.

Our favorite thing about Marvel Comics Super Special #1 is the advertisement for Air Latveria. It promises you a visit to the land of Latverian enchantment to enjoy, among other things, “the famous outdoor gladiatorial robot matches.” YES! Where do we book the next flight out of here?!

Collector’s Guide:
– From Marvel Comics Super Special #1; 1977.

See more historic rock comics we’ve shared: Alice Cooper in Marvel Premiere; Led Zeppelin in Rock and Roll Comics, and KISS: Psycho Circus from Image.

This Land is Mine! John Byrne’s Fantastic Four

Dr. Doom, Fantastic Four, Fantastic Four By John Byrne Omnibus, John Byrne, Latveria

John Byrne created some of the most memorable Fantastic Four epics during his run on Fantastic Four #232-292 and Annuals #17-19. We will share with you a few of our favorites. With five years of work to pick from, it wasn’t easy choosing just a handful!

Today’s feature: This Land is Mine! Dr. Doom captures the Fantastic Four to explain that ever since they kicked him out of Latveria, the whole country has gone to hell!

Mark Millar more recently paints a completely evil portrait of Doom. Byrne, on the other hand, made him a more complex character by revealing the deep love he had for his homeland and the people there. We always enjoy this scene where a woman from Latveria is thrilled to see the return of Doom! Yes! But don’t get too lovey-dovey with the man in the iron mask. The boy he saves when the woman is killed? Later, Doom erases the boy’s mind so he can store his own consciousness there. Dude, what an evil $#%&-er!

Collector’s Guide:
– From Fantastic Four #246 & #247
– Reprinted in the Fantastic Four by John Byrne Omnibus – Volume 1, 2011.
– Byrne’s run spans Fantastic Four #232-292 and Annuals #17-19.

Super-Villain Team-Up 13: When Walks the Warlord!

Atlantis, Bill Mantlo, Dr. Doom, Keith Giffen, Krang, Longbox Graveyard, Paul O'Connor, Sub-Mariner, Super-Villain Team-Up 13, When Walks the Warlord

Today we welcome back Paul O’Connor from the Longbox Graveyard. Paul has teamed up with us before for the T-Rex BeatDown and Godzilla Week, and we have some scans from one of his original works called Paranoia. After your head stops spinning from the awesomeness of Super-Villain Team-Up #13, check out his review of the complete series at LongBox Graveyard. Take it away, Paul!

Thanks, Mars, for an opportunity to present Super-Villain Team-Up #13, one of the best issues of this star-crossed series. As I detailed in my full review of the series over at Longbox Graveyard, Super-Villain Team-Up was a dynamite concept: an anti-hero starring vehicle for Dr. Doom and the baddest bad guys of the Marvel Universe. But, the series got derailed time and again by rotating creative teams and confusion over the direction and tone of the book.

By issue #13, the always-dependable Bill Mantlo was aboard. In this issue, along with issues #12 and #14, the series finally comes into its own. When Walks the Warlord features high drama beneath the waves as plot lines running for several years in this bi-monthly book come to a head at last. You’ll watch the Sub-Mariner fight to recover his lost kingdom of Atlantis. You’ll see Doom fulfill his vow to return Namor’s subjects from their nerve-gas induced slumber. Along the way, you’ll see all the stuff that made this series sing: Dr. Doom talking about himself in the third person, evil and noble at the same time! The Sub-Mariner being an Avenging Son and shouting Imperious Rex! A swordfight beneath the sea! A blasphemous horror from the bottomless depths!

If every issue of Super-Villain Team-Up had been this good, the book might still be with us … but alas, years of long neglect would shortly take their toll, and this potentially ground-breaking book would soon succumb to cancellation. But, we will always have that brief, shining moment, when super-villains teamed up to conquer the world (and each other), in a comic that wasn’t afraid to be fun, action-packed, and over-the-top with 1970s-style Marvel goodness. Enjoy!

Earlier today we posted the one Jack Kirby issue from Silver Surfer Volume 1. It’s packed with ethos, pathos, and every other -thos you can imagine. But Stan Lee & Jack Kirby weren’t always such serious guys! They liked a good laugh as much as a cosmic drama. Silver Surfer, Dr. Doom, and the Fantastic Four lighten up a bit in this demented story from the first issue of Not Brand Echh: The Silver Burper!

Wow, Dr. Doom sure has a way with the ladies. He wines them, dines them, then furtively gropes them on the cover of the magazine while they’re passed out! No wonder everyone wants to kick his ass.

In this scene from Uncanny X-Men #145, Storm cooks up a plan, and Dr. Doom cooks up dinner! Ororo is not yet the awesome leader she would become by the time she took that title from Cyclops in Uncanny X-Men #201. Here, her inexperience leads her into making eyes with Doomsie over a cocktail, then falling victim to his treacherous plan!

Collector’s Guide:
– From Uncanny X-Men #145.
