The Real Reason Everyone Looks Shocked



Can you spot this cover's goof?



(Aside from Kang having designs on becoming the next Giant-Man, that is.)

  1. Is it the bulge in his shorts? The rays from the Vision's hands? The fact that Thor and the Swordsman seem left-handed? It's priced 25 cents? Okay, you've got me - what is it?

    (Wish you'd reproduced it a bigger size so I could study it in greater detail.)

    1. You can just click on the image to enlarge it, but the goof is nothing you need to scrutinize to find. You'll see that, while your left-handed observations are off the mark, you've spotted the oddity about the Vision's ray-firing hand correctly.

      As for Kang's bulge--well, only Kang knows for sure, and I'm not about to ask him for confirmation.

    2. Actually, I did enlarge it, but the enlargement was still kinda small. Remember, big is beautiful - just ask Big Barda. Now to take another look at that piccie.

  2. The Swordsman appears to have only three fingers on his sword hand, though it is likely just a printing or inking error.

    1. The Swordsman's fingers are all present and accounted for, but you're getting warm! ;)

  3. Could it be that his ear is the same colour as his mask? Should it be flesh coloured? Has he got his moustache? (I forgot to look for the 'tache - I'll go back and check.)

  4. Thor's legs look pretty weird

  5. The Vision is shooting energy from his hand. His energy projections come from the jewel on his head.

    1. Yeah, the Vision seems to be pulling powers out of his hat here. You hit the nail on the head.
