We Have Already Seen...
...Henry McCoy, aka the X-Men's Beast passing through Rutland on his way to Canada on a vital mission.
He meets several comic book professionals who have arrived for the annual Halloween Parade, which features participants dressed as superheroes!
Unfortunately, long-time X-Men foe Juggernaut is also there, projected from a mystical dimension he had been exiled to, due to the supernatural properties inherent to the Rutland area as shown in the previous year's Marvel Feature #2 when the dread Dormammu tried to sacrifice Dr Strange on a nearby mountaintop on Halloween (long story we won't get into here)!
When the Juggernaut appears, Hank becomes The Beast to stop him...
Real-life Parade organizer and party host Tom Fagan appears in almost all Rutland-themed comics, dressed as Nighthawk (if it's a Marvel book) or Batman (if it's a DC book).
You'll see him in this trilogy again!
The two blondes in panel 2 are Marvel's own writer/editor Roy Thomas and writer Jeanie Thomas, who appeared in both the previous Marvel Rutland comics.
To clear up several things...
The Juggernaut got better, and returned...and returned...and returned!
(You can't keep a classic baddie down!)
Hank did get to Canada, where his expertise helped save the world!
But those are stories for another time and blog...
OTOH, keep an eye on Steve's beat-up jalopy, which plays a role in the remaining tales!
And, Glynis did have a rather exciting time while she was separated from the guys, as you'll see...
Hint: It has to do with her wearing a Supergirl costume!
Seriously!
