Stunningly photographed by award-winning photographer Geoff Spear, Fantastic Four No. 1 is showcased as you've never seen it before--oversize and up close--in this gorgeous panel-by-panel exploration of the entire issue.
Fantastic Four No. 1: Panel by Panel is the iconic and influential first issue of the Marvel classic comic by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. This volume captures every single detail and nuance of Lee's story and Kirby's groundbreaking artwork, making it a must-have for every comic book collection.
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.
Decades after its publication in November 1961, this reimagining by award-winning graphic designer Chip Kidd uses an original copy of the comic book (which initially sold for 10 cents and now sells for astronomical prices in good condition) 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 (Kirby: King of Comics).
