American Comics Update: Mighty Marvel Firsts: Fantastic Four #44-47 The Inhumans Tetralogy

*Marvel: We’re delighted to bring you the first complete Inhumans saga from Fantastic Four #44-47 in lower grade and very affordable copies. Hitherto, only Medusa had appeared (as part of the Frightful Four), but in #44 we learned that she was one of a hidden race, and the second member of the Inhuman Royal Family, Gorgon, turned up to play the heavy. He was swiftly followed by the rest of the family in #45: Crystal, Karnak, Triton, Lockjaw and in a last page cameo Black Bolt, who got his full debut in #46. #47 featured the debut of Black Bolt’s nasty brother Maximus. The Inhumans have intrigued and enchanted us for decades as a very established part of the Marvel Universe, and their debut story in these four issues is something rather special. (As a sidebar, the cover of #45, with its deep purple background, close-ups of our heroes and the lurking threat of the mysterious Inhumans above is a strong contender for my favourite FF cover).
