BHOC: MARVEL PREMIERE #47

Now I know that I picked this issue of MARVEL PREMIERE up in a candy store in a distant strip mall that my parents had gone to for some shopping reason. My regular 7-11 didn’t seem to carry issues of MARVEL PREMIERE–they had quietly stopped getting all sorts of books, including double-sized issues such as Annuals and pretty much any newly-launched series such as SHADE: THE CHANGING MAN. It was a…

Danny: “How do you kick somebody’s head off in zero gravity conditions? Start with the weapon-- use the inertia to spin around and-- then shove off the wall and bring it to him-- Even shattered, the stub of the whip-sword still looks nasty-- then take it-- and him-- out. And then...Stellar Astro-Fist. Um...Kick of the Geosynchronous Thunderbird. Something. Doesn’t matter. I made it up. What’s got two thumbs and didn’t boot in front of millions of people while inventing zero-g kung fu?” Defenders (2011) #1 by Matt Fraction, Terry Dodson, Rachel Dodson, Sonia Oback, and Clayton Cowles

In which Danny fends off assassins in low orbit.

For the record, this is not actually his first time fighting while weightless. All the way back in Marvel Premiere #22, he and one of his early antagonists were thrust into an abstract pocket dimension created by Master Khan, which had the fun feature of no gravity.

"The odds here are against you. For you were never trained to use your kung fu skills...where gravity does not exist! You float helplessly as the razor-sharp shuriken shrieks past your head. Each movement sends you drifting even more helplessly. Each succeeding shuriken passes even more closely to your person." Marvel Premiere #22 by Tony Isabella, Arvell Jones, George Roussos, Aubrey Bradford, and Karen Mantlo

Fortunately, Danny was trained to adapt quickly to new environments, even very odd ones, and just as he does in the above scene from Defenders, he manages to find his space legs in time to fight back.

You know, with the existence of characters like Loopy Goopty and Charlie mentioning downfallen superheroes in Hell in the Pilot, i now just imagine a universe where Charlie goes to to Earth and accidentally ends up becoming a superhero.

Like Satana?

The Doctor (not counting the Dell adaptation of the non canon Doctor Who and the Daleks film) made his first American comic appearance in Marvel Premiere 57#, Dec 1980. The story and art weren't original to this edition, but were taken from the UK comic Doctor Who Weekly issues 1, 2, 3, and 4. Marvel did add some supplementary art that was new to introduce the franchise including The Five Doctors (William Hartnell, Patrick Troughton, Jon Pertwee, Tom Baker, and non-canon Peter Cushing), Who is the Doctor (included an article explaining Doctor Who), TARDIS and K-9, and the Doctor's Most Fearsome Foes. ("Doctor Who and the Iron Legion parts 1 - 4", Marvel Premiere 57#, Marvel Comic Event)

Marvel Premiere #21 by Tony Isabella, Arvell Jones, Stan G., Vince Colletta, and Joe Rosen

It was 50 years ago today, on December 24th, 1974, that Mercedes "Misty" Knight first flying-kicked her way into the Marvel Universe, appearing in the pages of Marvel Premiere #21! In this story arc, part of Danny Rand's origin series, Danny's dear friend Colleen Wing and her father have gone missing. While desperately searching for clues to their whereabouts, he runs fists-first into Colleen's other best friend and longtime business partner, whom he has never met before and who has no idea who he is. Misty is not messing around-- someone she loves has vanished and she fears the worst, and so she comes in swinging. We learn two things about Ms. Knight in this initial encounter: she is beautiful, stubborn and unyielding to a fault, and a force to be reckoned with. We will learn a whole lot more about her in the years that follow, as she grows into the powerfully complex and compelling character that she is today.

If you want to get very technical, this is not actually Misty's first appearance. A few years later, a brief exchange between her and Spider-Man in Marvel Team-Up #64 suggested that she was actually an at-the-time-unnamed woman who Spidey and Johnny Storm saved from a mugging way back in December 1971:

Misty's original (and more official) first appearance packs far more of a punch, but I have a soft spot for this retconned intro as well, which contains so much of Misty's personality as we will get to know her-- unflappable but caring, with a funny, understated sense of humor. Either way, late December belongs to Misty Knight, and we are all better off for it.
