The 1961 premere of this self-proclaimed : World's Greatest Comic Magazine" usered in the Marvel Age of Comics. It all starts when Reed Richards, Susan Storm, Johnny Storm, and Ben Grimm take part in a space launch. Everything goes perfectly until they are bombarded with cosmic rays. Their inadequately shielded spaceship does not protect them, and suddenly the four find themselves altered by the radiation. Reed's body becomes elastic ; Susan finds herself able to turn invisible at will ; Ben becomes mutated into a the scaled-rock skined Thing ; and Johnny becomes a Human Torch. Together, they become The Fantastic Four. In the decades that followed, The FF has saved the world more times than can be counted and introduced readers to such legendary characters as The Inhumans, The Silver Surfer, Galactus, Doctor Doom and The Frightful Four. They're Marvel's longest-running team and a pivotal force in the Marvel Universe.
The issues that followed would be remembered as Marvel classics. Here is an opportunity to own an affordable, super investment grade copy of these early Marvel "classics", with only the most minor of imperfections allowable in this grade.
Item Description Stuff
9.0 VERY FINE/NEAR MINT (VF/NM): Nearly perfect with outstanding eye appeal. A limited number of bindery/printing defects are allowed. Almost flat cover with almost imperceptible wear. Inks are bright with slightly diminished reflectivity. An 1/8" bend is allowed if color is not broken. Corners are cut square and sharp with ever-so-slight blunting permitted but no creases. Several lightly penciled, stamped or inked arrival dates are acceptable. No obvious soiling, staining or other discoloration except for very minor foxing. Spine is tight and flat. No spine roll or split allowed. Staples may show some discoloration. Only the slightest staple tears are allowed. A very minor accumulation of stress lines may be present if they are nearly imperceptible. No rust migration. In rare cases, a comic was not stapled at the bindery and therefore has a missing staple; this is not considered a defect. Any staple can be replaced on books up to Fine, but only vintage staples can be used on books from Very Fine to Near Mint. Mint books must have original staples. Paper is (no worse than) cream to off-white and supple. No hint of acidity in the odor of the newsprint. Centerfold is firmly secure. Very minor interior tears may be present.

I use The Official Overstreet Comic Book Grading Guide to evaluate and grade all my comics sold/auctioned on eBay!

These RARE MARVEL comics are not always easily obtainable and tough to find period, especially with this exceptional degree of color and gloss and the outstanding spine/page quality. Everything else about this copy is rock-solid through and through, and would make for nice HIGH GRADE for the collection!...Based on market research and popular demand my BIN price is $60, ....FREE SHIPPING...feel free to contact me if there are any questions you might have about this item.
