1st printing. By Eric Fein During the Fantastic Four's publication from the 1960s to the mid-1990s, America saw many changes, and its creators, Jack Kirby and Stan Lee, took note within the comic book's pages. For instance, the first black superhero appeared on the pages of Fantastic Four, perhaps influenced by the civil rights movement happening in the real world. This book takes a comprehensive look at creators Jack Kirby and Stan Lee, from their techniques to their side projects, while examining the larger historical context in which the Fantastic Four was created and that of the comic-book industry itself during the comic book's three-decades-long stint.

Krazy Little Comics (1967 Topps): Fantastic Fear is one of sixteen parody mini-comics originally produced as test market items in 1967, by the Topps Chewing Gum Company. They did not see full national distribution. All were written by Roy Thomas and feature Wally Wood cover and interior art. These minis spoof not only Marvel and DC super-heroes, but other comic characters as well, like the Phantom, Prince Valiant, and Tarzan. These possibly predate, or are at least contemporaneous with, Not Brand Ecch! #1 (08/1967), and are among the rarest of the Merry Marvel Marching Society era items. Full color, 2.5-in. x 3.5-in., 8 pages, no cover price.

Writtenb by Stan Lee. Art and cover by Jack Kirby. Commentary by Tom Brevoort, Chip Kidd, and Mark Evanier.

The first issue of Fantastic Four by legendary creators Stan Lee and Jack Kirby introduced fans to a now-iconic team of super-heroes-Mister Fantastic, the Invisible Girl, the Human Torch, and the Thing-ushering in the modern Marvel Age of comics. Kirby's artistic contributions in this comic book revolutionized visual storytelling and brought a new reality to the way comics stories could be told, the ripple effects of which continue to influence comic book art to this day.

Sixty years after its publication in November 1961, this reimagining by award-winning graphic designer Chip Kidd uses an original copy of the comic book to present the classic story in a whole new way that is sure to engage both lifelong fans and the latest generation of Marvel enthusiasts.

The book also includes text by Marvel editor Tom Brevoort and historian Mark Evanier.
