You may not be surprised to learn that most people in the comic business grew up reading comic books. However, you might be interested in knowing what they were reading. Here’s a look at “Famous Fanmail”!
Peter B. Gillis is a comics writer that’s worked on the “weirder” Marvel titles like the Eternals, Doctor Strange, the Defenders and his own creation, Strikeforce Morituri. Ge got a letter printed in Fantastic Four #165 (cover date – December 1975), applauding the Fantastic Four’s return to “fantastic” stories and away from mundane street-level “human interest” tales.

Peter B. Gillis was one of my favorite writers of the era. TAILGUNNER JO was wonderfully weird and poignant, and STRIKEFORCE MORITURI was a true gem.
