There’s Four of ’em, and They’re Fantastic!
This year is the 50th anniversary of the very first Fantastic Four comic book. To celebrate, Green Brain Comics in Dearborn, Michigan decided to honor this auspicious occasion in a special way. They’ve invited 26 different artists to each re-imagine a single page from the comic in whatever way they choose. Here’s my interpretation of page 21:
My favorite part, for whatever reason, is the Invisible Girl running.
And here’s a video treat for you: Norm MacDonald tells the real story of how the FF got their name. There’s a teeny bit of adult language (the three letter variety, but that’s all), just so you know.
So cool that I went and took my original mint condition copy of Fantastic Four #1 out of its original sealed plastic slipcover just so I could compare it to your version! Ummm….should I not have done that?
(Also, your Green Brain Comics link above is broken – oops!)
Thanks Artie! No, that’s exactly what you should do. And the link is fixed. Thanks for that too.
Awesome Jim! Love it.
Thanks Tom!
This is one of the most awesome things I have ever seen…
You’re referring to the video, right Denver?
Did you get in on this at Green Brain?
Nope, I’m talkin’ about your rendition of the FF…so frickin’ amazing!
Wow! REALLY great drawing! That is an AWESOME, WAY COOL, KICK BUTT, FANTASTIC Four! okay, I think I used way too many adjectives there…
