Fantastic Four #19 - Jack Kirby art & cover + 1st Rama-Tut

Jack Kirby

Fantastic Four v1 #19, 1963 - Seeking a cure for Alicia's blindness, the FF uses Dr. Doom's time travel machine to travel to ancient Egypt. Consequently, they run afoul of the powerful pharaoh Rama-Tut (making his first appearance). Jack Kirby seems to relish the opportunity to draw one of the world's great ancient cultures. Pyramids, camels and chariots are faithfully portrayed, contrasting against the modern day heroes. Kirby's artwork overall is more than sufficient. Written by Stan Lee, this story was reprinted in Giant-size Avengers #2. This is 19 of 116 Fantastic Four issues by Kirby. /// key 1st appearance, 1st cover Rama-Tut
