BEN GRIMM & LOGAN "Connecting Flight" Conclusion

...before The Avengers, Fantastic Four, X-Men, or SHIELD existed, and before Kree Captain Mar-Vell came to Earth, Americans Ben Grimm, Carol Danvers, and Canadian Logan, infiltrated the USSR, where they encountered Natasha Romanoff (who is not operating under her own name)...and since the Russian isn't working with the trio, but against them...it ain't going well!
Sadly, we never see what happens during "Phase Two"!
Written by Larry Hama, penciled by Kaare Andrews and inked by Walden Wong, this never-reprinted tale from Marvel's Before the Fantastic Four: Ben Grimm & Logan #3 (2000) is set in the dawn of the Silver Age Marvel Universe, before the events of Fantastic Four #1!
And there's a reason Natasha isn't using her own name...but we never learn what it is!

While Grimm and Logan distract the Russkies by doing what they do best...creating mayhem and chaos, Danvers sneaks away...but encounters a threat as dangerous as Soviet soldiers...

BEN GRIMM & LOGAN "Mission to Nowhere" Conclusion

Despite the fact the title doesn't have a heroine listed...

...the cover (on the lower right-hand side) shows one of two reasons this tale is being presented here!

Before the X-Men, Fantastic Four, Avengers, or SHIELD existed in the Silver Age Marvel Universe, CIA operative Nick Fury recruited USAF pilot Ben Grimm and Canadian Intelligence agent Logan for a covert mission into the USSR.
After being briefed by weapons manufacturer/technology consultant Tony Stark, Grimm and Logan are taken to their mode of transport...

And now you know why this story is on this blog!
