Owner's Description

One of the gems of our collection, this White Mountain beauty is one of the three highest graded in the census and introduces the Skrulls from outer space who appear in the Captain Marvel and Spider-Man Far from Home movies. The Skrulls are shape-shifters who possess alien technology to perpetrate their misdeeds. Their plan is to conquer the Earth. Fearing that the Fantastic Four will stand in their way, they send four agents who disguise themselves as the FF and perpetrate misdeeds to ruin the FF’s reputation. Eventually, our heroes turn the tables and Mr. Fantastic hypnotizes the Skrulls into believing they are cows.

A little history on this one, this book was part of the Doug Schmell Collection and was sold in the Heritage auction in July 2012 for $49,293.75. However, somebody later bought the book on December 26, 2012 from that owner thru Heritage for $90,000. I am not sure if it was highest graded at the time, but I was lucky enough to pick it up for less than half the amount of the December 2012 sale in a 2014 ComicLink auction.
