Fantastic Four #190

Subtitled "The Way It Was," this 1978 "All-New Album Issue" presents a sweeping retrospective feel right from its Jack Kirby–penciled, Frank Giacoia–inked cover, where the Human Torch, the Thing, Mr. Fantastic, and the Invisible Girl stand united in the foreground, surrounded by a gallery of floating heads representing the team's rich rogues gallery — including Doctor Doom, Galactus, the Silver Surfer, and several other memorable faces from the FF's history. It's a cover that captures the full scope of Marvel's First Family and the remarkable cast of characters they've faced, making this feel like a genuine celebration of everything the title has built. For fans who love a little reflection alongside their adventure, this is a satisfying entry in one of Marvel's longest-running series.
