Marvel Two-in-One #66

Marvel Two-in-One #66 (August 1980) plunges the Thing and the Scarlet Witch into the third chapter of "The Serpent Crown Affair," promising a political conspiracy the cover breathlessly bills as "deadlier than Watergate." George Pérez and Terry Austin's cover delivers a vivid tableau: the rocky orange form of the Thing and a wide-eyed Scarlet Witch are each ensnared by massive serpentine coils, while a suited figure at center — the Serpent Crown blazing on his head — raises his fists and delivers the Thing's trademark grumble, "What a revoltin' development this is!" It's a wonderfully kinetic 1980 Marvel package, with Pérez's dynamic figure work making the threat feel genuinely imposing and the team-up pairing feel all the more fun for it.
