Fantastic Four Epic Collection #3
In "Side-by-Side with Sub-Mariner!", the Fantastic Four face off against Dr. Doom and Daredevil in a clash that tests their unity and strength.

Written by Stan Lee and brought to life by Jack Kirby’s dynamic art, with inks by V. Colletta, colors by Stan Goldberg, and letters by Artie Simek, this epic chapter from the Fantastic Four Epic Collection #3 features Kirby’s original cover pencils and Joe Sinnott’s inks.
