Welcome to the stage the Black Panther and the Grim Reaper!

T'challa rocking that alt costume where you see his face

...

...

...

Dude's first time in America and already getting hassled by the cops

...

...

Grim Reapers costume is, kind of awful?

that family has no fashion sense

...

That helicopter trick might be the apex of Grim reaper's coolness

...

...

...

i thought the simon connection was a big end of issue reveal, oh well. i'm confusing it with whenever Clint's brother shows up i guess

...

...

got him so bad they had to do silhouettes

...

...

Black Panther rules so much

X-MEN

MAGNETO

One of those covers that's homaged all the time!

the footnote i guess means this scan is from a reprint?

I feel like Silver Age JLA always needed a John Buscema.
(Later) Sekowsky and Dillin are good, but Buscema was on a whole other ballpark.

...

i dunno if there's an issue of Uncanny X-Men that leads into this but i don't have it if so

fucking hawkeye

THAT AWFUL ANGEL COSTUME

silver age dc i'm either super into (Legion desu) or do not care about. Couldn't get into any of the JLA i've read from the era.

bob haney/jim aparo BATB tho, that's some good shit

love Magnetos islands

Mags has at least 3, this one, the one from Uncanny 150, and Genosha right?

I was reading a Claremont/Byrne Uncanny eariler, it's crazy how Mags built that giant Antarctic base.

Hey he beat Ozymandius to it!

...

Silver Age AvX! I remember when I ran this. Good memories.

...

christ Hawkeye and Pym, you're like children

hilariously it has just as much out of character assholery.

another installment of "sure magnets can do that'

...

i have Thoughts on the Bronze Age X-Men vs Avengers. bc I'm pro reformation Magneto

...

...

...

...

It's part of a particularly long (for the Silver Age) storyline that started in X-Men #43 (even earlier if you wanted to know when Prof X "died")

...

...

New Masters of Evil!

...

...

that's a really funny panel of Jan

...

I was like ugh boring masters of evil fuck this issue. then i got to this page and fuck yeah Crimson Cowl

...

Whirlwind's secret ID is so dumb and i love it.
