The Abominable Snowman (Carl Hanson) is a character in the Marvel Comics universe.

The character, created by Jack Kirby and an uncredited writer, first appeared in Tales to Astonish #13 (November 1960).

Within the context of the stories, Carl Hanson is an adventure who steals a photograph of the Abominable Snowman and attempts to track the creature down. Not accepting advice from others that the photo is cursed, he slowly transforms into the creature during his search.

Famous quotes containing the word abominable:

    The abominable doctrine taught in the pulpit, the press, in books and elsewhere, is that the whole duty of women is self- abasement and self-sacrifice. I do not believe subjection is woman’s duty any more than it is the duty of a man to be under subjection to another man or many men. Women have the right of independence, of conscience, of will and of responsibility.
    Anna Howard Shaw (1847–1919)
