FF Question

16 posts in this topic

In what issue of Fantastic Four did The Thing first say, "It's clobbering time?"

 

Might have been an early Strange Tales...

I give. Which issue?

 

I don't know. I've been wondering lately where the first appearance of that phase was. If no one here knows, I'm sure it's a complete mystery.

how are you so sure?

 

 

George Olshevsky, one of the most exacting people when it comes to comics, noted in his OFFICIAL MARVEL INDEX TO THE FANTSTIC FOUR in the "Comments" entry for issue #22 "The Thing utters his famous battle cry 'It's clobberin' time!' for the first time in this issue."

Good enough for me. Thanks for solving the mystery.

Just reading the issue wouldn't help as you'd have to read all Thing appearance that came prior to confirm that it's the first time he used "it's clobbering time".

 

Not everyone has all the early FF, and other thing appearances prior to FF 22....
