GREAT WOMEN OF OUR TIME - (PART THREE)...


Copyright MARVEL COMICS

The above pin-up first appeared in THE FANTASTIC FOUR #10 in 1962, although I first saw it in FANTASTIC #17 five years later.  As a boy I had quite a crush on SUSAN STORM, which is more a testament to JACK KIRBY's ability to draw attractive women than it is to what a strange kid I was.  (At least, that's my story and I'm sticking to it.)  Alas, it was not to be, and Susie married some geeky scientist who wasn't good enough for her.  Women, huh?  Who can understand them?  I'd have treated her like a princess.  (Gotta go - it's time for my reality pill.)

    Have to admit I liked her best as portrayed by John Romita - those being my first issues of FF may have something to do with it.

    I liked the Romita and Buscema portrayals as well.

    The Invisible Girl? I don't know what anyone sees in her myself.
