Long billed as Marvel’s first family, the Fantastic Four were the first of their kind in the comic book industry, and they had long been one of the strongest sellers in Marvel’s slate for much of their six decades of existence.
These characters had brought something tremendously unique to the world of comic books, as they were the first true family; which brought with them all of the interesting narrative dynamics that one would imagine coming from that kind of familial connection.

It was more than just that family connection, however, as the team became a beacon for readers to venture into the cosmic realm of the MArvael Universe, as Stan Lee pitted the group against some of the most interesting Marvel villains of all time.
A team that has seemingly been around forever is being reborn in a brand new way, as Marvel celebrates the 60th anniversary with a brand new Fantastic Four variant cover for the team’s upcoming brand new series.

The project is set to arrive this November, and not only will they see some fantastic new covers come from the legendary artist Alex Ross, but they will also see these brand new honorary covers from artist J Scott Campbell.
The cover certainly does well in encapsulating the story of Ryan North and Iban Coello’s Fantastic Four series, which will see the team get caught in a time loop following Ben Grimm and Alicia Masters’s attempt at a normal vacation.
