 X-E - Behold The Power of FIN FANG FOOM!
Fin Fang Foom (or Triple F has he's called in dragon wrestling circles) first appeared in Strange Tales #89, and later popped up hear and there in other comics like Tales to Astonish and a fun issue of Thor.
That they chose to create FIN FANG FOOM before Spider-Man, The Hulk, or even The Fantastic Four just hints at how important FIN FANG FOOM is to comic book culture as a whole.
When monster comics were the "in" thing back in 1961, Lee and Kirby were coming up with all kinds of amazing monsters with names that were more like sound effects like "Groot, the Monster from Planet X", "Vandoom", "Kraaa!", "ZZatak!", and "Grottu!" But FIN FANG FOOM was a stroke of genius.

 dolphin, aquatic mammal: Characteristics and Species
The bottle-nosed dolphin is blue-gray with a dorsal fin and white belly.
The dolphin's intelligence, playfulness, and friendliness, its built-in smile and merry-looking eyes have been a source of interest and enchantment to human beings from earliest times; it is a common figure in mythology and literature and has been much depicted in art, especially in the posture of its graceful, arched, 30-ft (9-m) leap.
Dolphins communicate by means of a demonstrably descriptive language understood by more than one species, using all the sounds in their repertory.

 Editorial: Camera Obscura: Get Smart
Fin, the bassist, devours Eddie Campbell and obscure French comics, and is working on a graphic novel.
'Comics activism is actually still quite a passive thing.' She describes the movement as being like a series of spokes and hubs for distributing information about protests between loosely affiliated groups, who have interests or methods in common, using the internet and mobile communications.
What interests me about their intersection with comics is precisely that they have no connections with the comic culture that's familiar to us, and so far as I can tell, they don't really plan to make any.

Small ones can be distinguished from the Scalloped Hammerhead by the rather flat frontal edge of the head, and by the rear edge of the pelvic fin, which is curved only in the Great Hammerhead.
Three of these are common throughout warm waters, but the Smooth Hammerhead likes cooler temperatures and is only a seasonal visitor to Florida.
TACKLE AND BAITS: Like the Scalloped Hammerhead, it is a good candidate for lighter tackle, and takes the same baits.

 Fin Fang Foom: Texture, Structure, and the Condition of Moods - PopMatters Music Review
Fin Fang Foom (yes, they are indeed named after the Marvel Comics character) are a band who don't want to be labeled "math rock", because they throw in other elements to their sound, such as piano and vibes.
The sound of Fin Fang Foom is as dark and foreboding as their namesake (for those who aren't familiar with comic books, Fin Fang Foom was a big old bad ass dragon).
Fin Fang Foom are best when they play it relatively straight and stick to one formula or the other.

Fin Fang Foom was given a much needed dose of treachery by Walter Simonson in comics, and Neil Surges captures his menace in this sculpt.
Fin Fang Foom is obscure at best, and hasn't made an appearance in any Marvel title in a long time.
After having all my worries about the Fin Fang Foom bust being a lame-ass idea vanquished, I still never thought it would be as cool as it is. Standing 9" tall (reportedly 1/8th scale of a 150' tall monster-- hmm), artfully painted, and strictly limited to 2000 pieces, this bust demands respect.
