This classic collectible also has the thrilling origin story providing the first appearances of Mister Fantastic, the Thing, Human Torch, and Invisible Girl--along with the debut of the tragically evil Mole Man. The pop-culture passion for Fantastic Four is now set to get even more heated, with excitement building over Marvel Studios finally recovering the film rights to the company's first super team!
The rumor mill has been churning for quite some time now concerning when, how, and where the Fantastic Four will be rebooted in the MCU, and also, much has been made about which actors will portray the First Family of Marvel, it is one of the most eagerly awaited announcements in pop culture today. All of this means good things for key issues of the FF’s run, but there is no more important issue than their premiere and origin story in FF #1. This VF+ copy has been anointed with CVA’s exceptional classification, which means this is one particularly sturdy and attractive 8.5 example. The classic Kirby cover still packs a formidable punch as the memorable image looks sharp, and clear, and has survived the decades in a glorious state of preservation.
