Mighty Marvel Masterworks: The Fantastic Four #2
"A Visit with the Fantastic Four" marks a standout moment in the early run of the series, featuring the dynamic team at a crossroads as the Mad Thinker manipulates their lives to separate them. Written by Stan Lee and brought to life with Jack Kirby’s bold artwork and Dick Ayers’ crisp inks, this issue captures the Fantastic Four’s vulnerability in the face of a cunning foe. The cover by Michael Cho perfectly frames the tension, with the Baxter Building’s silhouette looming as the Thinker’s plans unfold.
