Publication History
The Thin Man made no further Golden Age appearances following his debut. He next appeared in 1970s comics in World War II flashback stories, beginning with Marvel Premiere #29 (April 1976). Through retroactive continuity, this story, by writer Roy Thomas and penciller Don Heck, posited the Thin Man as a founding member of the superhero team the Liberty Legion. The Thin Man appeared in that capacity in a story arc that also included The Invaders #6 (May 1976). He also appeared with the Liberty Legion in The Invaders #35-37 (Dec. 1978 - Feb. 1979); in the final two-thirds of a three-part story arc running through The Fantastic Four Annual #11, Marvel Two-in-One Annual #1 (both 1976), and Marvel Two-in-One #20 (Oct. 1976); and in issue #3 (June 1993) of the 1990s miniseries The Invaders. The Thin Man would go on to co-star in the series The New Invaders.
