#282: December 1976 (w/Sylvia Rayleigh) - "Terrible Threat of the Tri-Animan!"

It took us almost a year, but we finally brought Sylvia on as a guest after her extraordinarily generous contribution to the GoFundMe of our much loved and much missed friend, Jennifer Lumbley. We are so grateful for the relief that Sylvia's gift brought Jennifer during a time when it mattered most. 💚For more than an hour and a half of bonus content — including our coverage of Black Panther #2 and 15 more Marvel comics in the Mighty MBTM Checklist — support us at patreon.com/marvelbythemonth. $5 a month gets you instant access to our bonus feed of over 170 extended and exclusive episodes. $10 a month lets you help pick the comics we cover in depth and gets you a shout-out at the end of the episode! Stories Covered in this Episode:"We Must Free the Defenders!" - Defenders #45, written by David Kraft and Roger Slifer, art by Keith Giffen and Klaus Janson with Gerry Conway, letters by John Frost, colors by Dave Hunt, edited by Archie Goodwin, ©1976 Marvel Comics"Terrible Threat of the Tri-Animan!" - Werewolf by Night #43, written by Doug Moench, art by Don Perlin, letters by Debra James, colors by George Roussos, edited by Archie Goodwin, ©1976 Marvel Comics "Marvel by the Month" theme v. 4 written and performed by Robb Milne.
