Fantastic Four: World’s Greatest Comics Magazine #8, September 2001
“What if Stan Lee and Jack Kirby concluded their historic run on FF with one last wild adventure?”
Bruce Timm and other all-star creators showcase their love and admiration for Jack Kirby in this fun 2001 mini-series.
And when we say “other,” we mean it. This terrific title page features layouts by Erik Larsen, pencils by Ron Frenz and Inks by Timm. Other creators in this issue alone include Bill Wray, Rick Veitch and Terry Beatty. Others in the full series include Keith Giffen, Al Williamson, Joe Sinnott, and Paul Ryan, to name just some of the cast.
The story itself takes between issues #100 and #101 of the original Fantastic Four run. It took Marvel 10 years before they finally collected it, and its now available in both hardcover and trade paperback. If you’re a fan of that amazing Lee Kirby FF run, this series is a must-own.
And if you’re not a fan of that classic, my sympathies.
