Fin Fang Foom is our Mutant of the Week and by mutant, I do mean monstrous helldragon from space! Popping up in the strangest places, it’s appropriate that he(she/it/sheit?) first came on the scene in Strange Tales #81. Originally hailing from the planet Maklu IV, Fin Fang Foom has caused destruction and mayhem whenever he manages to wake up from his drug-induced periods (heyoooo) of hibernation. He can fly at supersonic speeds, spew acid-mist-breath, communicate telepathically and take a beating like a super-durable 32′ dragon-monster.

You’ll find Foom these days a reformed Buddhist, attempting to live a regular, human life. For the craziness and for the acid-breath, Fin Fang Foom is our villainous Mutant of the Week.
