Kirby cover/art; 1st app of the Silver Surfer and Galactus; the greatest comic story ever told; COMIC BOOK IMPACT rating of 10 (CBI)
Fantastic Four #48 launched the legacies of two enduring Marvel legends, introducing the Silver Surfer as the herald of Galactus, Devourer of Worlds—who shows up at the end with his own first appearance. The result is a highly collectible classic comic that launches an arc of what fans and collectors both celebrate as "the Greatest Comics Story Ever Told." This timeless tale from Stan Lee and Jack Kirby is one of the true classic that elevated the Fantastic Four into one of the comic industry's most ambitious titles. The upcoming Marvel Studios revival of the big-screen FF is one of the most hotly anticipated projects in the history of superhero films, with little doubt that Galactus will eventually be part of the team's return to the official Marvel Movie family.
