A second Man-Thing series ran 11 issues (Nov. 1979 – Jan. 1981). Writer Michael Fleisher and penciller Mooney teamed for the first three issues, with the letters page of #3 noting that Fleisher’s work had received a great deal of negative criticism and that he had been taken off the book. He was succeeded by, primarily, writer Chris Claremont and illustrators Don Perlin (breakdowns) and Bob Wiacek (finished pencils). Claremont’s stories introduced the Man-Thing and Jennifer Kale to Doctor Strange (whose series he was concurrently writing), after which his material focused on two new supporting characters: John Daltry, Citrusville’s new sheriff, and Bobbie Bannister, a formerly wealthy girl who is the only survivor when her parents’ yacht is attacked. These characters’ stories he resolved by tying them to a resolution for his own War Is Hell series.
