*Marvel: One of the most sought-after Marvel Comics of the 1960s is Fantastic Four #48, which introduced the Silver Surfer, a cosmic-powered being the equal of the combined FF… and the Surfer’s master, Galactus, an entity of even more monstrous might! Both became major figures in the Marvel Universe, with the Surfer repenting his role as Galactus’ herald and choosing the side of justice, while Galactus’ insatiable hunger drives him ever onwards to more heinous acts. This copy of the double debut is one of the nicest we’ve beheld, with tight staples, off-white interior pages and deep, vibrant, unbroken cover colour and gloss. There is minimal spine and upper cover edge wear, but the cover scene itself is utterly unmarred. It is a pence copy – unusually, both stamped (unobtrusively) and pence printed – but this doesn’t detract from its considerable eye appeal. FN+ p £1,000. Front and back covers and splash page shown here; high resolution scans are available on request. SORRY, THIS HAS NOW SOLD
