Invincible Iron Man #79 (Friedrich/Tuska, Oct 1975). Deadlines caught up with the bullpen so this backfilled issue gets hurried to the press. If you ever wondered if Tony wears boxers or briefs, wonder no more.

"Where grave masks dance genteelly with grotesque figures; it's a mad whirlpool, wherein all that's graceful is cast away and unlimited license of attitude takes possession of the field,” (Edward King, on the masked ball).
Thanos, the Mad Titan, was created by Jim Starlin and Mike Friedrich!

Stupid editor -- always jumping on me- just because I don't meet his stupid little deadlines! And if I know that Orlando, he'll put the worst inker in the world on my story -- my pencils deserve to be inked in gold, not these bums they've been sticking me with lately!
Gil Kane & Joe Orlando in House of Mystery (1951) #180

June 1968. Aside from its striking Gil Kane cover (I love the cityscape), this issue of GREEN LANTERN is pretty close to being an Alan Scott solo adventure, set largely on Earth-2.
Which raises a point: With the renewed interest in Alan Scott coinciding with the JSA revival, Alan being outed, and the ghoulish Tim Sheridan miniseries, it's frustrating that DC hasn't taken that as a cue to collect some of Alan's past adventures beyond the smattering reprinted elsewhere (some of which are long out of print). A sampling of his Golden Age adventures, such as the early appearances of now-familiar villains like Vandal Savage, Solomon Grundy, and the Harlequin would be nice, but there are also some Silver Age and later adventures that would be worth reprinting, including his Silver Age team-ups with Hal Jordan (GREEN LANTERN #40, #45, #52, and #61), a brief solo strip in the late '70s (GREEN LANTERN #108–110), and the team-up with Hal and Oliver Queen in GREEN LANTERN #111–112 that was the first attempt to really address the connection between Alan and the Green Lantern Corps. If one wanted to present a complete bio, the INFINITY INC. Annual that explained his relationships with the Thorn (who's the mother of his kids) and Molly Maynne would be appropriate, and he had a charming solo strip in eight issues of GREEN LANTERN QUARTERLY in the early '90s that was torpedoed by "Emerald Twilight." Only bits and pieces of that stuff have been previously reprinted, and collecting it would provide a nice foundation for whatever dumb nonsense Geoff Johns and Tim Sheridan are now trying to scaffold onto it.

One of the funniest things in the early Warlock comics is that Counter-Earth was created so Roy Thomas could write him as being on an Earth without heroes. It was supposed to be *our* Earth. To that end it's mentioned that the most pivotal Marvel characters of Reed Richards and Dr Doom are normal scientists. (except for the mask because his face hadn't been revealed and this would be the wrong place to do it)
Tumblr media
Again, only included in that story to show that they ARE NOT IMPORTANT HERE... but now that we know they're here... the temptation was too strong. It only takes a few issues for Reed and Doom to become featured super characters. Amazing.
