Product Description:
Not since the days of Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, the trailblazers of the Marvel Universe, had someone so perfectly captured the intense mood, cosmic style and classic sense of adventure of Marvel's first family of super heroes.

The best installment of John Byrne's mammoth run on this F.F. title. The Galactus storyline is the highlight in this volume: EVERYONE against the World Eater.
I have the originals, but the paper and color quality of these reprints are outstanding. This volume is worth every penny...

The amount of information conveyed in a single panel continues to astound me, densely but clearly showing the actions and reactions all at once. Issues 241-245 are the standouts, but all of them are SWEET! In twelve issues they fight Galactus, ... Read More

Want some good, old-fashioned superhero storytelling, with adventures that are truly imaginative, innovative, and full of heart? Then get this second volume of Fantastic Four stories written and drawn by John Byrne. In this collection, writer/artist Byrne continues making the F.F. his own, but he also more fully embraces the goings-on in the Marvel Universe at large, resulting in some memorable appearances by Thor, Captain America, Spider-Man, Daredevil, and the like. The multi-issue Galactus story ... Read More
