Fantastic Four Adventures

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Fantastic Four Adventures is part of Marvel UK's 'Collector's Edition' line. It is being published by Panini Comics but reprints Marvel Comics from the United States. It reprints modern (about 2 years old) Fantastic Four Comics as 2 of its 3 24 page stories. The 3rd story is a 'classic' story, a story originally printed in the 1960's. Currently it is reprinting the original Fantastic Four stories by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby that established the characters from issue 1. It has 76 pages of which there is a contents page on the inside cover and a letters page on the inside back cover. The cover is made out of a thick card unlike the US comics which is made of normal glossy paper. The printing work is of high quality. Fantastic four Adventures is sold once every 28 days through Newsagents. It features very few adverts, normally 4 of the 76 pages, which is very few compared to the American comics it reprints.

It began in 2005 around the release of the Fantastic Four film and follows the format established by the Collector's Edition Range.

It began by printing stories by Carlos Pacheco but now is reprinting the run by Mark Waid, but will soon print J. Michael Straczynski's run on Fantastic Four.
