SUMMARY:
Released by Marvel Comics for September 1979, this issue is entitled “The Pegasus Project, Part Three: Giants in the Earth.” At Project: Pegasus, a moonlighting Ben “The Thing” Grimm (nursing an injured arm) joins staff members Quasar & Bill Foster’s Giant-Man in containing the radioactive Nuklo from desperately running amok.
Amidst this emergency lockdown, another of the Project’s residents: the alien Wundarr (aka the future Aquarian), may become a future threat. Elsewhere, at Madison Square Garden, pro wrestler Thundra faces an unexpectedly formidable in-ring adversary. Thundra’s ongoing subplot ties into the next issue.
REVIEW:
What stands out is a decent showcase for the underrated Giant-Man. His team-up with The Thing is relatively entertaining. Otherwise, including decent visuals, it’s a standard Marvel read for its time.
ADDITIONAL CONTENT:
A “Bullpen Bulletins” column is included. There’s also “The Ever-Lovin’ Blue-Eyed Letters Page” column.
BRIAN’S ODD MOON RATING: 5½ Stars
