The Thing #28

Ben Grimm steps into the spotlight of the Unlimited Class Wrestling circuit in this October 1985 issue, with the cover — penciled by Ron Wilson and inked by Brett Brewing — framing a fight-poster showdown: "The Ever-Lovin' Thing vs. Demolition Dunphy, Tonight." The Thing crouches in a combat-ready stance at the center of the poster image while a looming armored figure peers in from the right edge, hinting at the muscle-on-muscle clash ahead. Mike Carlin's story, brought to life by Ron Wilson's art, promises all the bruising drama you'd expect when Marvel's ever-lovin' blue-eyed brawler steps between the ropes.
