| | Don Markstein's Toonopedia: The Squadron Supreme |
 | | In Avengers #69 (October, 1969), writer Roy Thomas (The Invaders, Man-Thing) and artist Sal Buscema (New Mutants, The Incredible Hulk,) pitted the group against a villain called The Grandmaster, who sponsored a team of stooges called The Squadron Sinister. |
 | | Meanwhile, as The Avengers were traipsing through parallel worlds, they ran across the superheroes The Grandmaster had based his subordinates on, who turned out to be residents of another Earth, which they called "Other-Earth". |
 | | It was drawn by Buscema's brother, John (who, from Conan the Barbarian to The Silver Surfer, pretty much set set Marvel's house style for that decade). |
