Premium example of amateur comics from the Sixties! Bill Spicer, editor. Historic significance and features of Fantasy Illustrated #4: While Richard Kyle initially coined the terms "graphic story" and "graphic novel" in Capa-Alpha #2 (November, 1964), Capa-Alpha was only available to members of the APA and was extremely limited in circulation (less than 50 copies). Thus, Richard Kyle's Graphic Story Review column is the 1st public coining and explanation of the terms to general comicdom, a significant event! The issue also features one of Jeff Jones' 1st published strips, KU: Primordial, a Tor-like hero. This issue was also the 1st (and last) Fantasy Illustrated to feature super-hero strips: Buddy Saunders provides the Patriot while Bill DuBay drew Dreamsman and Lucky (both written by Steve Perrin). Excellent back cover by Jim Jones, plus letters from soon to be pro Doug Moench, super sci-fi fan/writer Alex Eisenstein, artist Landon Chesney, and fan legends Fred Patten and Bob Butts.
