Startling Stories: The Thing - Night Falls on Yancy Street #1

Ben Grimm — the ever-lovin' blue-eyed Thing — strides out of a shadowy urban alleyway on this 2003 Marvel opener, rendered in moody nocturnal blues by cover artist Dean Haspiel. Wrapped in an oversized trench coat with fists raised and that trademark rocky scowl firmly in place, he looks every inch the street-level tough guy that Yancy Street has always known. Writer Evan Dorkin and artist Dean Haspiel kick off this four-issue Startling Stories run with a cover that promises something grittier and more grounded than your average Fantastic Four adventure.
