Marvel-ous Monday: "The Runaway and the Rescuer!" by Kraft, Zimmerman, and Chan

Greetings, Groove-ophiles! Here's a little-seen piece from The Hulk! #10 (the first full-color ish of the former Rampaging Hulk magazine) by David Anthony Kraft, Dwight Jon Zimmerman (yep, the acclaimed author), and Ernie Chan. "The Runaway and the Rescuer!" blew Teen Groove away simply because of its existence. A brand new illustrated prose story featuring Ol' Jade Jaws--in full color! Yours truly always loved experimental stuff in his mags, so this was a welcome treat (along with the comics and the articles we'd grown accustomed to).

  1. I don't know about you, but I was always too lazy to read the prose pieces in comics (Charlton was full of them in lieu of letters pages). I had no problem doing it for books. But felt like it was too much work for the more visual medium of the four-color page.
