I’m going to call April 1961 the month when Atlas Comics finally FINALLY became Marvel Comics, since some of their comic books on sale that month had a very distinctive “MC” insignia box on the covers: Journey into Mystery #69 and Strange Tales #86. Farewell Atlas Comics! I, for one, welcome our overlords Stan Lee, Jack Kirby, and Steve Ditko.
This month’s batch of Marvel monsters include Manoo, Korilla, Mechano and The Green Thing!
