Discuss the Fantastic Four #92 Key Issue

With The Mightiest Punch! having concluded, #thing ranked Leader in the Power Hierarchy. With an impressive competition and fan-votes, Thing made it to the Top 30 in the ranking competition.

Since fans are joining the League of Heroes, we are inviting fans to collect key issues from The Mightiest Punch! Certainly, Fantastic Four (1969) #92 in the series is a key issue for the following reasons:

  • First Appearance of Napoleon G. Robberson (Skrull).
  • First Appearance of Cat-Man.

Let’s briefly discuss the issue:

The issue is important for being one of the #fantastic-four issues without a Doctor Doom appearance. Importantly, it is set almost all in space on the Skrull’s alien planet. In typical Thing fashion, the FFer is transported to the alien world in order to fight in the Great Games.

Definitely, Jack Kirby’s art is top-notch, rugged and caricatural. The heroes are rough and muscular, while the panels have colorful backgrounds and special effects. Really, targeting the fans of Kirby’s art. Certainly, this key issue is a must read for fans of the Fantastic Four or Thing.
