Stan Lee called it "the World's Greatest Comic Magazine," and he wasn't kidding. If Lee and Jack Kirby set the comics world on fire in 1961 with the debut of the Fantastic Four, in 1965 they burned it down. Letting loose an unmatched burst of rapid-fire creativity, they gave birth to the Frightful Four, the Inhumans, Galactus and the Silver Surfer - and even pulled off the first super-hero wedding! There are also monster menaces galore, including Dragon Man - and out-of-this-world villains, from the shape-shifting Skrulls to the undersea warlord Attuma. But it's not just the panel-bursting action that makes FANTASTIC FOUR great.

It's the drama of a family, united to explore all the wonders of the Marvel Universe side by side!

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.

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.

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