Kicking off our three-part Sentinels Saga – with some FEAR AND HATE!

What can the X-Men do when noted anthropologist Bolivar Trask takes a page out of J. Jonah Jameson’s book to assert that Mutants are a MENACE?  Well, their creepy, bald leader might decide to engage in a televised debate with him… which, might not go according to plan!

It’s a fun story… and I hope you’ll join me for it!

Also: The original Letters Pages, the OFFICIAL Marvel Bullpen Bulletins (featuring plenty – ie. too much – chatter on the Merry Marvel Marching Society), and the MIGHTY Marvel Checklist for cover-date November, 1965!
