History:
(Fantastic Four I#10) - With a deadline looming, and complaining about the lack of any decent villains since Dr. Doom’s unwitting exile into space, Jack Kirby quickly drew up a head shot of a proposed new villain for the next issue of the Fantastic Four. Stan Lee nixed the idea, calling the concept commonplace and bemoaning the lack of excitement, citing Dr. Doom as a great villain. Jack agreed, stating that villains like Dr. Doom were not created every day.
When the Latverian dictator announced his return in the Marvel offices, the character of False Face was quickly abandoned and never used again.
Comments: Created by Stan Lee (writer), Jack Kirby (pencils) and Dick Ayers (inks).
Hey, will someone out there start a letter writing campaign to finally get this guy into the Fantastic Four series?
Now just tell me he wouldn’t fear the Living Eraser. Or maybe they could team up?
And an extra special thanks to the Internet’s own Bully for allowing me to use his scan.
Maybe he got wiped out by the
TVA's Retroactive Canon as used by Clockwise,
which was used to wipe out various timeless characters like ... um
...?
--Grendel Prime
Maybe when Jack Kirby created False Face, he was inspired by stories of the villain who fought Bob Brant & the Troubleshooters (@ Man Comics#26). --John Kaminski
