MISTER MACHINE IS A MAN...


MISTER MACHINE/MACHINE MAN copyright MARVEL COMICS

Following our MACHINE MAN EPIC COLLECTION post, let's now take a look at the covers of the first three mags he appeared in when he was called MISTER MACHINE, way, way back in 1977.  Created by JACK 'King' KIRBY for his 2001: SPACE ODYSSEY mag, MM appeared in the last three issues of the ten-ish series, before being awarded his own comic.

And if you'd like to read the stories, ATOMIC KOMMIE COMICS blog has all three issues for you to read, which you can do by clicking on this link to part one.

  1. That's the issue I just got last year. Surprisingly cheap I think it was less than $10.

  2. Are you going to try and get the other issues, Phil?

  3. Thanks for the plug for my re-presentation of the three issues of 2001: a Space Odyssey featuring Mister Machine aka X-51 aka Aaron Stack aka Machine Man that aren't included in the Machine Man TPB.
    (And I thought Hank Pym had a lot of pseudonyms!)
    Note: I have issues #8 & #9 up, but #10 won't be posted until this coming Tuesday.
    All three will be hyperlinked within the the blog posts or by using the keyword "Mister Machine"

  4. Nae bother, Britt. It was a safe bet that #10 would probably be up by the time people seeing the link had worked their way through #s 8 & 9, so just consider it a little advance advertising.
