American Update: The Good Doctor Collection: Fantastic Four #112 – Hulk Vs. Thing – The Sequel
*Marvel: Our first visit to the Good Doctor Collection this week features a tough one to get in any sort of reasonable condition. Evoking the classic two-parter of issues #25 and #26, Fantastic Four #112 pits the FF’s Ben Grimm against Bruce Banner, the Incredible Hulk, for a no-holds-barred battle by Stan Lee and John Buscema. Highly sought-after these days, primarily for the dynamic Buscema cover, this copy of Fantastic Four is a FN+ cents copy with minor edge wear and some corner blunting, but a deep, rich black background with vibrant colour figures of the protagonists. Staples are tight and firm and the comic lies flat. Pages are white, with just a hint of off-white. The only significant defect is purple ballast ink, primarily on the back cover lower spine and margin centrefold, as well as some lower page edges, but this does not impinge on the reading experience.
