Ah, the Golden Age, when villains had the decency to introduce themselves with a quick rundown of their history and motivations before initiating a fight scene.

Common courtesy went a long way back then.

I remember when Slott turned that lot into a bunch of teenage misanthropes led by a Skrull. Good times.

I remember buying this issue and thinking it was cool. Boy I'm getting old. BTW: THere must have been some kind of Whizzer fetish at Marvel at the time because they also brought him back in the Avengers.

At the time it was believed he was the father of Quicksilver and the Scarlet witch.(he wasn't, his son was Nuklo)

One thing about the Thing in this storyline is that he isn't actually the Thing. At the time Ben was briefly turned back to human, so what we're seeing here is actually Ben in a Thing shaped exoskeleton.

So how exactly did the Thing wind up in '42? Time travel, yes, but what was he doing there?
And all joking aside, if you're designing a machine that flies by spinning around, a swastika is not the worst shape for it - logistically speaking, that is. It's reasonably close in shape to a propeller.
