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.

Written by Roy Thomas. Art by George Perez. Cover by Rich Buckler.

The return of a hero! A clash of titans! Team roster shakeups! The sensational seventies serve as the source of some of the FF's most scintillating sagas as this colossal collection proves beyond a doubt!

First, revisit one of Marvel's Atlas Era gladiators, the Crusader, as he makes his pulse-pounding return to Earth!

Then, mania ensues as the Thing "Hulks out" with his new tag-team partner, only to see his own FF membership placed in jeopardy by the most unlikely replacement member of all!

Finally, soar to the stars as our fearless foursome vies against Galactus and his most "destructive" herald yet, only to be dealt an "impossible" situation back home!

One of Marvelous Marv's most astonishing sagas!

The Fantastic Four have been fighting Skrulls since #2 - and, somehow, it just never gets old...unlike the FF themselves! An aging ray has three-quarters of the foursome at death's door, but they'll fight the Skrulls to the finish alongside Nova and the Champions of Xandar - at least until a greater threat rises from the Champions' own ranks! The Sphinx is ready to conquer the world, and Mr. Fantastic knows of only one opponent who can stop him: Galactus, who just wants to DESTROY the world instead! Includes the first appearances of Terrax the Tamer and H.E.R.B.I.E. the robot - but which one will prove the greater threat?

Also featuring Spider-Man, Medusa, S.H.I.E.L.D. and cameos from across the chronicles of history!

Hardcover, 208 pages, full color.

Cover by John Byrne.

It was the world's greatest comic magazine - again! Not since the days of Stan Lee and Jack Kirby had a creator so perfectly captured the intense mood, cosmic style and classic sense of adventure of Marvel's First Family.

Fresh off an earth-shattering and reputation-making run as penciler on UNCANNY X-MEN, John Byrne proved his writing talent was every bit the equal of his art as he pulled double-duty on FANTASTIC FOUR, launching Reed, Sue, Ben and Johnny into realms of imagination and wonder into which few creators before had dared to travel. From the four corners of the globe to the farthest reaches of space to the deepest depths of the Negative Zone, the FF face off against foes old and new - including the Dr. Doom, Galactus and Annihilus!

Plus: The FF aid the Inhumans, bid farewell to the Baxter Building, don new costumes and celebrate their 20th anniversary in style as Byrne reminds us all there's a family at the heart of this team of adventurers!
