*Marvel: You know the one, right, where in Fantastic Four #57-60, Doctor Doom steals the Silver Surfer’s cosmic powers and uses them to defeat the FF in one of THE classic adventures of Marvel’s first family? Oh, and somewhere in there the Inhumans break free of the Great Refuge. The Bute Collection offers us four excellent high grade cents copies. These really are amongst the nicest copies of these issues we’ve ever seen. Lee & Kirby at their finest.
