Marvel by the Month

#015: May 1963 - "Duel to the Death With the Vulture!"

Episode Summary

In this episode, Nick Fury makes his nail-chewing, Nazi-stomping WWII debut and instantly triples the amount of testosterone in the Marvel Universe. The Vulture and the Tinkerer also appear for the first time, as does Doctor Strange (but not that Doctor Strange). The Puppet Master and the Sub-Mariner return, and Peter Parker picks up an after-school job that he holds for about 40 years.
