 You know, the more I look at this, the less it's a showdown than a smack-down. And I had a few others I was looking at. Oh, well. I'll do better next week... |

I always have a bad feeling when I think of this series. It should have been great but too many of the heroes were not the classic versions. I think Spider-man was Ben Reilly and Thor was dressed in one of the worst costumes ever. Also, the choice of artist didn't do the book justice. |

That PoS was what drew me back into comics after years of absence. Quickly followed by Heroes Reborn. An inauspicious re-debut I must say.  |

One of the earliest superhero comics I remember reading, along with another WW issue right before or right after it. |

Showdown The Hulk verses The Thing There's another classic Thing vs Hulk FF cover, this one by John Buscema, that I almost wish I'd picked. Hopefully someone else will use it. |

I was always a sucker for "alternate universe" stuff. It did make "Heroes Return" all that much sweeter, though, returning to a Bronze Age style that was my main stock and trade.  |
