Notes & Trivia[]

  • This is the first appearance of the Frightful Four. All but one member of the group, Medusa, have made prior appearances in other titles.
  • This is the first appearance of Medusalith Amaquelin, aka Medusa. She is a member of a genetically bred race called the Inhumans. Thus, this makes this the first appearance of the Inhumans as well. The race as a whole makes their first official appearance however in Fantastic Four #45.
  • Behind-the-scenes appearance by Yancy Street Gang. This is a group of street punks that always play pranks on Ben Grimm. The Thing #1 reveals that Ben Grimm used to be the leader of the Yancy Street Gang when he was a teenager.
