In 1961 Marvel launched the Fantastic Four - a comic that was to revolutionise and popularise comic books. It was Marvel's first 'family' of super-heroes and when it debuted, the Fantastic Four broke every comic book rule - the characters had no secret identities, lived in a real city (NYC), had problems, worries and arguments, just like real people! This definitive guide to the Fantastic Four provides a wealth of information about the history of the ground-breaking comic, plus fascinating facts about key storylines and all the major characters - good guys and bad - that have thrilled fans since the comic's creation over 40 years ago. Filled with more than 300 spectacular colour images from the author's impressive archive, 'Fantastic Four: The Ultimate Guide' is an invaluable addition to any fan's collection.
