Glob

Glob is a muck-encrusted swamp creature from Marvel's Bronze Age, a shambling monster who first emerged in 1974. He has since crossed paths with the Hulk and other Marvel heavy-hitters, occupying the same eerie corner of the universe as the Frankenstein Monster.

A lumbering presence born from the Bronze Age imagination of Jack Kirby himself, Glob made his Marvel debut in 1974's Giant-Size Man-Thing #1 — already a statement of intent for a character designed to unsettle. Over five decades, this muck-encrusted figure has haunted the pages of The Incredible Hulk and Nick Fury's Howling Commandos, sharing adventures with heavy hitters like the Hulk, Bruce Banner, and even the Frankenstein Monster — company that tells you everything about the strange, shadowy corners of the Marvel Universe Glob calls home. With a Kirby pedigree and a publishing history stretching all the way to 2025, Glob is one of those gloriously weird Bronze Age discoveries that rewards the curious collector willing to dig into Marvel's more monstrous mythology.
