Owner's Description
The FF battle the X-Men in issue #28, through the connivance of a host of old FF foes. Three 9.8s do exist here, but we lost the last one that was auctioned by ComicLink. Our 9.6 does come from the Don & Maggie Thomson Collection and is tied for second highest graded. The Thompsons were responsible for several publications and writings during the '60s that helped bring together comic book fandom as we know it today. Already adults when Fantastic Four #1 was released in 1961, the Thompsons carefully stored away copies of most Marvel and DC comics throughout the '60s and '70s. Don passed away in 1994, and in 2013 Maggie decided to sell the collection through Heritage, resulting in nearly $1 million in sales, thanks to the pristine condition of their comics, which included an Avengers #1 and Tales of Suspense #39 in 9.4, a Journey into Mystery #83 in 9.2 and a Hulk #1 in 8.5.
We acquired our book in the 9/17/2015 CL Auction.
