...lets look at a half-century old, never-reprinted tale about someone who actually enjoys this sort of weather!
Written by Don Glut, penciled by Mike Sekowsky, and inked by Mike Vosburg, this story about the legendary Sasquatch appeared in Marvel's Arrgh! #3 (1974) as a new surge of interest in the creature swept America.
Most older pop culture fans remember that a Sasquatch/Bigfoot appeared several times on both The Six Million Dollar Man and The Bionic Woman (including a two-part crossover), played initially by pro wrestler/actor Andre the Giant, and later by Ted (Lurch) Cassidy!
This particular Bigfoot was an alien-created cyborg in a plotline that combined the twin 1970s fads of Bigfoot and Chariots of the Gods!
It was also one of three "enemy" figures released (as "Bionic Bigfoot: the Sasquatch Beast") in Kenner's Six Million Dollasr Man/Bionic Woman action figure series! (The others were a Fembot and Maskatron/Mr X!
