American Comics Update: The Bute Collection: Fantastic Four Meet the X-Men in FF #28
*Marvel: From the Bute Collection this week, a crossover classic. In issue #28 of the FF, the X-Men guest-starred in a packed issue with the menaces of the Mad Thinker & his Awesome Android and the Puppet Master. As is usually the case in these early crossovers, the two teams are pitted against each other as a result of the villains’ machinations. Kirby managed to fit all members of both teams plus the Awesome Android on to the cover without it looking overcrowded. This solid mid-grade pence printed copy has nothing much in the way of specific defects (a small crease bottom right corner just breaks colour), but just honest wear with a little corner blunting. Staples are tight and firm, spine strong, pages a supple off-white to cream.
