Fantastic Giants #24

In "With the Help of Hogar," witchdoctor Manu seeks power by carving a meteorite into a giant statue he names Hogar, hoping to use it to reclaim his place among his people. When a nearby atomic test and a lightning strike combine their forces, the statue awakens—only to turn on its creator and unleash chaos across Africa. Written by Dave Kaler and brought to life with stark, dynamic art by Steve Ditko (pencils and inks), this 1966 Charlton classic features a cover by Ditko that captures the moment of the statue's terrifying birth.
