Crazy #73 from April 1981 was one of their “Super Special” editions that mostly featured reprints of previous issues. This one also had something called “The Fuppets” of cutouts so you can do a play of
Marvel characters such as
Spider-Man and
Hulk performed with finger puppets.
This annual was done under a cover by
Bobby London, who co-incidentally sent me a birthday greeting through Facebook as I was typing this.
A feature they'd do here and in the annuals was re-letter old comics with new dialogue, like they did with
Fin Fang Foom, a monster comic by
Jolly Jack Kirby and
Darlin' Dick Ayers from
Strange Tales #69 in April 1961.
Note how the shorts the
Comics Code made them put on the monster have been changed into
novelty underwear.
For contrast, here is the original story:
Part Two next Sunday.
