This oversized Artist's Edition celebrates the legendary work of Jack \"King\" Kirby on Marvel's Fantastic Four and reproduces classic artwork at approximately the size of the original art. IDW's Artist's Edition format was created to give collectors an unusually close experience to viewing original comic-book artwork, reproducing the original pages in high-resolution color so that production details such as pencil marks, corrections, paste-ups, blue-line work, editorial markings, and other characteristics of the physical artwork can be seen where present. For collectors of Jack Kirby, Fantastic Four, Marvel Comics, and original comic art, these oversized Artist's Editions have become highly desirable books in their own right.

BOOK DETAILS Title: Jack Kirby's Fantastic Four Artist's Edition Creator: Jack Kirby Characters: Fantastic Four Publisher: IDW Publishing \/ Marvel Format: Oversized Artist's Edition hardcover ISBN-13: 978-1-63140-831-1 Status: Out of print Condition: Sealed \/ unopened Packaging: Original IDW cardboard protective\/shipping case Contents: Never inspected because the original packaging has not been opened ABOUT THE ARTIST'S EDITION FORMAT IDW's Artist's Edition books occupy a special niche between conventional collected editions and original comic art. Rather than simply presenting cleaned-up reproductions of finished comic pages, the format was designed to reproduce surviving original artwork as faithfully as possible. The oversized presentation allows collectors to appreciate Kirby's line work, page construction and production process on a scale much closer to the original boards. That makes this an especially appealing volume for: Jack Kirby collectors • Fantastic Four collectors • Marvel collectors • original comic art enthusiasts • comic historians • Artist's Edition collectors • Silver Age Marvel fans Kirby's work on Fantastic Four alongside Stan Lee was foundational to the development of the Marvel Universe and introduced or helped establish an extraordinary number of characters and concepts that remain central to Marvel today. CONDITION The outer cardboard case shows storage\/handling wear , including some edge\/corner wear and other minor signs of age\/storage visible in the photographs. Most importantly, the packaging remains sealed .
