Powers/Abilities: The Cosmic Creature was composed of superhumanly durable extraterrestrial metal strong enough to deflect military aircraft fire, though not strong enough to defend against Thor's uru hammer, Mjolnir. It could fly via jets and could extend metallic tentacles capable of entrapping the superhumanly strong Thor and destroying wooden water towers with ease.

History:

(Thor in "The Attack of the Cosmic Creature") - Hailing from space, the Cosmic Creature touched down in a populated city and began wrecking havoc, destroying a water tower in its wake. The military was quickly called in but the Cosmic Creature shrugged off their aircraft's gunfire and, noticing the aircraft, Thor arrived on the scene to investigate. The Creature immediately extended metallic tendrils that captured Thor but Thor managed to hurl Mjolnir into the top of the Creature, destroying it.

Comments: Created by an uncredited writer and artist.

Despite how strong the Cosmic Creature seemed to be, Thor sure took it down quick. One hit from Mjolnir and it was down!

The Cosmic Creature appeared in the toy Kenner See-a-Show cartoon slide. The slides are copyright 1967 Marvel Comics Group, clarifying that the characters contained therein are Marvel's, not Kenner's.

The Cosmic Creature was only called such in the story's title and a yelling bystander in the strip refers to it as the "Monster from the Sky."
