What’s Old: Fantastic Four #45 FN+ – Debut of Inhumans
For our existing stock spotlight this week, we turn to 1965’s Fantastic Four #45 which saw the culmination of a long-running subplot – and the introduction of a whole new family of supporting super-stars. Since #36, the mysterious Madame Medusa had been a thorn in the side of the FF, and latterly, from #44, she had been pursued by the equally mysterious Gorgon. Now, the pair’s true origin, and their royal heritage, was revealed, as Black Bolt, Monarch of the Inhumans, made his first appearance, along with Crystal, Karnak, Triton and Lcokjaw – as the origin of Medusa and Gorgon was revealed. An instant hit, the Inhumans became major players, either with the FF or in various series of their own, and their own TV series is about to spin off from the hit “Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD” show. This copy of the Inhuman’s debut is a FN+ p copy, with beautiful unmarred cover scene, deep cover colour and gloss, and superior interior pages. On sale for £200.
