This little book is actually a real guide that is not only about the history of the fictional team called the Fantastic Four but of the origination of the comic from its original concept. The guide would be a perfect addition to anyone who has an interest in the history of Marvel or had any questions about the Fantastic Four. The depth of the characters history and evolution is very well documented. Some of the inserts from the comic are so small that it makes the characters dialogue hard to read. This inserts show the growth of not only the story but the art and does not detract in anyway from the guide. The book also contains a page of stickers and an interview with Stan Lee. ( )
