Manic Monday Bonus--Colan's Captain Marvel!!

Just because no one ever talks about it, here is some of Gene Colan's work (with Vince Coletta inks) back in the early days of the Kree Captain Marvel.

The first hints of the Kree-Skrull war:

Yes, Roy wrote it. I think he'd come back to the idea...

Super-Skrull vs. motorcycle!

Invisible Super-Skrull vs. Mar-Vell...

Swooping down...

Mar-Vell vs. Namor...



Look, no one was going to ever make that green & white costume look good. But Gene still did a pretty sweet job...

From Captain Marvel #2-4 (1968).

Technically, the correct title for the first six issues of the book was Marvel's Space Born Superhero! Captain Marvel--yes, exclamation point and all--because who knows why. But there's no way I'm going to type Marvel's Space Born Superhero! Captain Marvel over and over again...
