365 Days with Ben Grimm, Day 358

MTIO #8
Panel from Marvel Two-in-One #8 (March 1975), script by Steve Gerber, pencils by Sal Buscema, inks by Mike Esposito, colors by George Roussos, letters by Charlotte Jetter


What the Sam Scratch is goin' on here? It's one of the great Marvel Universe Christmas stories, and it's pretty much just what it looks like. And yes, that's Ghost Rider. For the full story, why not check in on Chris(tmas) Sims at the Invincible Super-Blog as he takes you through the glory and the wonder that is Marvel Team-Up #8? As Chris says "I've always had the feeling that the story of the birth of Christ would be better if it had a super-powered orange rock monster and a flame-headed demon from the depths of Hell itself, but now I know for sure. And it is."

And so say all of us.

I remember that story! I always wondered how Ghost Rider could wear those robes and not set them on fire...
