Man-Thing Graphic Novel Vol:
1 , No: 1 ----------------------Not Published
-
This was listed in one of the giveaway comic shop gossip sheets
years ago along with a sample of some very nice painted artwork. I
asked Steve Gerber if he knew anything about it and he replied
As for the graphic novel, well -- Kevin Nowlan has never
finished it, and I have no idea whether or not it will ever be
published.
On his yahoo mailing list in early 2003, Kevin Nowlan commented when asked Man-thing should be published later this year. It's not all finished, but we're trying to figure out a way to get the remaining pages completed...It had numerous problems from the very beginning and I'll be very happy when it's finished once and for all.
- Peter Parker Spiderman giant-size "Annual"---------------------- 1999
- THE SCOOP: Spider-Man and the macabre Man-Thing unite in an out-of-this-world adventure!
- THE STORY: When we last left the shambling muck monster, all existence was on the verge of being wiped out! So what happened?! How can a little ol' web-spinner possibly save the Nexus of All Realities, the very fulcrum of existence? And what if the enigmatic and all-powerful Scrier decides to stop him? It's Spidey in the most outrageous adventure yet - with only all of reality at stake! Let's hope he's up to snuff or we're in serious trouble!
- THE CREATORS: J.M. DeMatteis and Liam Sharp (Spawn: The Dark Ages), the talented team from MAN-THING, unite once again, this time ably assissted by Joe Bennet (NOVA). And new sensation J.G. Jones (BLACK WIDOW) provides the cover!
- THE FORMAT: 48-page Annual.
- I was gravely disappointed with this comic, it mixed some leftover artwork from the Strange Tales series with some quite drab Spiderman filler. The new Man-Thing is a complete change of direction: he is now the soul of the first sentient being that arrived on earth that has joined with the souls' of Ted and Ellen Sallis. This Man-Thing is a silvery-white colour and talks while wandering around looking wise and mystical. It's a mess.
- Hulk no. 6 & 7----------------------1999
- Creators: John Byrne, Ron Garney and Dan Green.
- It's mud wrasslin' time with the macabre Man-Thing! With blood on his hands, The Hulk is out of control and more dangerous than he's ever been before! Now the green goliath just wants refuge, so he heads to the Florida Everglades, but something is there - something sentient, something deadly - and we're not talking about the Man-Thing (although he shows up, too!)
- The story refers briefly to the previous transformation but soon gives us the classic Man-Thing doing the silent witness thing.
- Man-Thing Record ---------------------- ???
-
- Power Records Site. Check out a review at Radio Heroes, and a download via Scar Stuff
- Ultimate Marvel Team-Up #10----------------------2002
- Creators: Brian Bennis, John Totleban and Ron Randel.
-
- THE SCOOP: Spidey meets the muck monster called Man-Thing!
- THE STORY: Despondent that the funding for his cherished limb regeneration research is to be -- pardon the pun -- cut off, biologist Curt Conners turns himself into a guinea pig -- and finds himself transformed into the lethal Lizard! The rapacious reptile seeks refuge in the dank recesses of the New York City sewer system -- pursued by our fledgling web-spinner! But unknown to them both, something far more mysterious lurks in the subterranean shadows -- something known as the macabre Man-Thing!
- This is an interesting but predictable addition to the ranks of muck monster stories. Man-Thing plays only a very small role in events.

BACK ISSUE #6 (100 pages,
$5.95),----------------- shipped 15 September 2004.
the Halloween issue includes GREATEST STORIES NEVER TOLD: 'Swamp Thing and Man-Thing: Who the Muck Came First?' has interviews and art by Wein, Wrightson, GERRY CONWAY, ROY THOMAS, VAL MAYERICK, and JOHN BYRNE! Other muck monster content includes Swamp Thing creators LEN WEIN and BERNIE WRIGHTSON who discuss the character's roots, while STEVE BISSETTE and RICK VEITCH spill their guts over their 1980s work on the series, with arty Wrightson and Bissette!
The 100 page, saddle-stitched 8-1/2" x 11" magazine with a full color cover and black-and-white interiors retails for $5.95 in the U.S.
A well researched and designed publication, this issue has some useful information and a couple of rare images concerning the genesis of Man-Thing. This is an important reference for Man-Thing fans, but with only four pages of Man-Thing content those of you who aren't interested in the longer articles and interviews regarding Swamp-Thing and other 70s and 80s horror comics might want to have a flick through before deciding whether to buy.
MAN-THING appeared in the NIGHTCRAWLER issues #
9, and 10 late 2005 in a cameo role as a rampaging "mind-controlled"
monster.

Wha..Huh!?COVER BY: Jim Mahfood (we think)
Once again Man-Thing pushed his way into the cover shot for a Marvel book. This parody title was to have appeared in December '04, but has been delayed until September '05 for reasons unspoken. I had a quick lok through and there doesn't appear to be any appearance apart from on the cover.
The hype: Written by BRIAN MICHAEL BENDIS, STAN
LEE, MARK MILLAR, J. MICHAEL STRACZYNSKI, GARTH ENNIS, BRIAN K.
VAUGHAN, PETER DAVID and everyone else we could get our hands
on!
Because clearly Bendis doesn't have enough books to write this month,
the big baby bullied Marvel's upper management into green-lighting
this ridiculous pile of silly nonsense! In the great tradition of NOT
BRAND ECHH and the old humor issues of WHAT IF?, WHA...HUH? asks the
questions that no one really cares about...
What if the Identity Crisis happened in the Marvel Universe?
What if Modok has an itch?
What if Kevin Smith finished his books?
Bendis reteams with hilarious Clerks artist Jim Mahfood and all the
best Marvel scribes-Mark Millar, JMS, Garth Ennis and a ton of
others-to make the dumbest comic published this year. No one is
safe!

Cover by Kaare Andrews
For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. Once, scientist Ted Sallis and Ellen Brandt were lovers. Now, they have both been transformed: Ted into the monstrous Man-Thing; Ellen into a disfigured mockery of her former self, her face seared in an act of vengeance. Now she's returned to Citrusville with a team of terrorist mercenaries, looking for payback. Her mission: To kill the Man-Thing, no matter what it takes. Even allied with witch-woman Jennifer Kale, what chance does the Man-Thing have of surviving? This radical re-imagining of Marvel's premier horror icon concludes this issue! (And yes, Digger's narrating this one, too!)

Get down, America! Vote Howard the Duck in 2008! That's right,
folks. It's an election year, and what better way to celebrate
than to cast your vote for the one candidate who'll really tell
it like it is. Born on a planet populated by talking waterfowl,
Howard the Duck found himself trapped in a world he never made:
ours! Howard was the archetypal outsider, able to see through the
absurdities of human society in the 1970s with uncanny accuracy
and an acerbic wit. His adventures presented writer Steve Gerber
with a platform from which to engage in an ongoing critique of
contemporary fools and pretenders, from power-mad capitalist
wizard Pro-Rata to cult leader Reverend Joon Moon Yuc to the
dreaded Doctor Bong! Experience for yourself the complete comic
adventures of Howard in this Omnibus collection, reprinting his
first appearances and the entire run of his first series.
