I don't know what the people at Marvel did exactly, I guess they went and found a different source from where to film and print, but most of the issues included here look INCREDIBLY better than their poor, xerox-like badly restored Masterworks counterpart.
If you already own the Masterworks for this part of the 4F run, you'll feel cheated and will want to throw them away, believe me, reproduction quality improvement is THAT big.
On the other hand, binding is poor for such a mammoth of a book, and, contrary to popular opinion, I wish size was the same as the original books when they were published for the first time, as it should be for an archival edition.

These are not just the best Fantastic Four stories they are among the best stories ever in the Marvel History. All stories are drawn from Jack Kirby and mostly inked by Joe Sinnott. However, quit possible you already know that. Just the comments of various authors are unnecessary. I am very critical about the printing quality but I can assure you this time the printing is perfect. The book is oversized and the binding is strong and considering the large amount of 840 pages this book can be read easily. It is well worth the money.

Well, even though I think this summer FF blockbuster is a nice thing to see (well, not high art but I have a good time (despite Jessica Alba's "hairdress" and make-up), the best thing to come from it, it's Marvel publishing this huge and high quality book, containing several of the best stories not just from the Fantastic Four career but the superheroe genre. Mr. Lee and Mr. Kirby were getting warmed up in the first twenty issues of this series and, once the time come, their creativity and imagination explode bringing characters and concepts that push the genre to higher grounds of pure delightfull and subtextual entertainment. From the exotic jungle of Wakanda to the cosmic horizons where the Watcher takes the Human Torch to look for something against Galactus, I think I'm not exaggerating here when I say every story from this hardcover is the very best from Marvel's old times and maybe, ever.
Sorry for my poor english.

Marvel has done an outstanding job in the reproduction of this volume. Kirby's artwork looks terrific, and the slightly-larger-than-Masterworks size really enhances everything. In fact, if you already have the Masterworks editions of these stories, you'll want to sell them because they look so much better here. If you're an FF fan, this volume is a must have. If you're newer to the FF, these are the stories that truly defined this group, epic and operatic, showcasing Stan Lee and Jack Kirby at their very best. And it's a lot of fun to have the letters pages reproduced along with the stories. Some nice essays finish out the package. Highly recommended!

This is my second Marvel Omnibus that I bought from Amazon. My first was the Uncanny X-Men Omnibus. The first thing I noticed with this book while flipping through the pages is that it seems to be printed on heavier paper stock than the X-Men Omnibus. This definitely adds to the Quality of the book. Also, the colors are very bright and vivid and look great. Overall, it's very nice to have, especially with the awesome variant cover.
