“The Man Who Looked Backwards!”

In "The Man Who Looked Backwards!", the Wizard breaks free from jail and unleashes his new anti-gravity device to pull off a series of daring crimes, impersonating Johnny Storm while capturing Sue and planning his next heist. With Reed and Ben’s help, the team escapes and Johnny pursues the fleeing Wizard, who tries to flee into the sky—only to find his device failing as he spirals upward, out of control. Written by Stan Lee and drawn by Dick Ayers (with inks and letters by Ayers himself), this 1969 Alan Class classic features dynamic action and a gripping chase, all capped by a striking cover by Bill Molno and Vince Alascia.
