Russell: Nobody writing the Fantastic Four in the '60s thought, 'Okay, this is a story about the Fantastic Four set in the '60s. Working on a story about Marvel’s First Family is not only an honor in itself, but what makes it even more so, is being part of the team that gets to tell such a moving and heartfelt story about these iconic characters, their struggles and triumphs in a new way that draws on what has come before,” Izaakse said. Industrialized Evil: Doctor Doom proposed to the Silver Surfer his way of saving Earth from Galactus: he would rule the planet on Galactus's behalf, and under Doom's rule, he would establish an aggressive breeding program, allowing Galactus to consume five hundred million people every year, thereby satisfying Galactus's hunger far more than if he had consumed Earth on arrival. In the first issue of Fantastic Four: Life Story, the iconic Jack Kirby and Stan Lee characters build their ship as part of the Space Race in the 1960s, with Richards being hired after three failed attempts at getting Americans in orbit.

Sue could be in the room, using her invisibility, or she could be somewhere else, doing something entirely different. Nrama: This six-issue series tells their story, with each issue roughly taking place in a different decade - starting in the '60s.It allows me to look back with hindsight on what events and attitudes were important to those decades, how they affected what came next, and let the Fantastic Four inhabit the world of that time.
