Marvel 1602: New World / Fantastick Four

In 2010, Marvel revisited its Elizabethan-era alternate universe with Marvel 1602: New World / Fantastick Four, a single-issue story that reimagines the Fantastic Four as a team of explorers in the Age of Discovery. Illustrated by Leinil Francis Yu, this one-shot expands the original 1602 concept by transplanting the classic super-team into a world of royal courts, uncharted seas, and early science. It’s a compact but vivid snapshot of how Marvel’s signature family of adventurers might have operated in a past where the extraordinary is just another frontier.
