Hopefully, this lasts longer than a couple of days.

I would have to check in my French editions in my dad's cellar  (I will have to go back there one day) but until I bought all the comics back issues I didn't remember Namor and the FF being involved here. I was very surprised when I re-read the full run. Either my memory played tricks on me or as was common practise, that issue was cut to bits and pieces because all the series were on different times and the crossovers cuouldn't work with series that were out of time. Other French guys help me here please.
What I remember vividly is Aurora's crisis and how I felt the blow as much as Walter. Still gives me the shivers to this day and probably influenced my way of dealing with the fairer sex. Another thing I can blame on JB.

John I bought "a" cover color guide for this issue on eBay. Any memories as to how the colors turned out and how the giant hand was done ?

The Plodex are still some of my favorite aliens.

So, here we see the first glimpses of the not-so-conventional "relationship" between Sasquatch and Aurora. It didn't quite dawn on me as a kid that they were basically "F*ck Buddies". This was probably a first for a super-hero comic, too.

I would have loved to have seen how that "night in New York" played out - no, not the naughty stuff, but how it got to that point. What would they be doing in NY anyway, unless they had already agreed in advance to go there together?
