I mean, after all, how many works of literature can you find in which one of the characters has the term POWER VS. POWER exploding right out of his ass on the cover, hmmm?
It never ceases to amaze me the things you notice! :P

Anybody know what A.I.M. stands for?
Face front, L.G.! Where were you in Marvel Comics 1.01? I've wasted several brain cells remembering that A.I.M. stands for "Advanced Idea Mechanics", which really doesn't clarify very much, does it. It was the usual baddie group bent on conquering the world somehow or other.

A lot going on, plus Jack Kirby drew the HELL out if a 12-page story.
He does, indeed. I loved Jack Kirby's work, back then & now. But I always wondered...how come every one of his women looked exactly the same?

Don't know about Kirby, but much the same could be said about the stf artist Ed Emsh. His all looked the same because they all looked like his then wife, Carol Emshwiller.

There's a name I hadn't thought of in a long time but now I remember his drawings were all over the place back in the good ol' days. Here's a pretty good list of his covers, most of which have images if you follow the links.
