Marvel Two-in-One #91

Ben Grimm finds himself shackled and crouching against a bold red brick wall, snarling "Aw, no--! Not YOU! It CAN'T be YOU!" — a great teaser that promises a surprise adversary worthy of the ever-lovin' blue-eyed Thing. Ron Wilson and Chic Stone deliver a cover that puts Ben's rocky mass front and center, the heavy chains and manacles around his wrists suggesting someone — or something — has managed to restrain Marvel's most durable brawler. "In the Shadow of the Sphinx" sounds like an adventure with ancient stakes, and this September 1982 issue of Marvel Two-in-One makes it easy to believe Ben Grimm is in for one of his tougher team-up challenges yet.
