I suppose this one can be considered an unusual cover, in that The FANTASTIC FOUR don't actually appear on it 'in person' - only on a poster bearing their images. This yarn has long-been one of my favourite FF tales, first read in the pages of WHAM!, then later in an issue of MARVEL COLLECTORS' ITEM CLASSICS. Readers were perhaps a tad confused by the ending of the original ish #7, as Mr. FANTASTIC says "There was no reducing gas, Sue!", thus making the preceding events entirely impossible. What he should have said was "There was no enlarging gas, Sue!", which it was amended to in later reprints. Current editions of Marvel Masterworks and Omnibus volumes carry the original error, for the purpose of maintaining archival integrity.
