Fantastic Four #296 - Barry Windsor Smith art & cover

Barry Windsor Smith

Fantastic Four v1 #296, 1985 - Contemplating his future, the Thing recollects how it all began and the events that created the Fantastic Four. This giant issue begins with Barry Smith's cover of the Thing in disguise, somewhat marred by the border celebrating Marvel's 25th anniversary. Inside, the artist draws only five full pages and two half pages, concentrating on a single character. Elegant and thoughtful, Smith's drawings have a beautiful aesthetic not easily matched. Other artists in this copper age comic include John Buscema, Joe Sinnott, Jerry Ordway and others. This is 1 of 1 Fantastic Four issues by Smith.
