Fantastic Four #166

The cover by Rich Buckler and Dan Adkins delivers exactly what it promises — the Hulk squaring off against the entire Fantastic Four, with the Thing hurtling toward him through the wreckage of a smashed spacecraft while the Human Torch blazes overhead and Mr. Fantastic and the Invisible Girl scramble nearby. That bold cover copy insists this is "not just another Thing vs. Hulk battle," and with all four members of Marvel's first family thrown into the chaos at once, there's plenty of reason to believe it. Roy Thomas's story title, "If It's Tuesday, This Must Be the Hulk!", hints at a wry sense of humor tucked inside what is clearly a full-throttle brawl — a fine combination for any 1976 Marvel reader.
