Marvel Two-in-One #72

The cover of this February 1981 Marvel Two-in-One says it all — Ben Grimm, the ever-lovin' blue-eyed Thing, is locked in a fierce clash with the purple-and-blue-clad Maelstrom, while Black Bolt and other Inhumans are swept up in the chaos around them, all set against a swirling, otherworldly pink backdrop. Ron Wilson's pencils and Chic Stone's inks give the brawl a real sense of raw, kinetic energy, with each figure feeling like they're about to burst right off the page. With Mark Gruenwald and Ralph Macchio on the script and the tagline promising "The Sinister Secret of Maelstrom," this one has all the makings of a satisfyingly turbulent team-up.
