For real. Everything works in that issue.

Pop Quiz Time!

Why did Reed construct the Radical Cube and enter The Negative Zone?

What's up with FF annual 6?  I got a very nice copy about 6 months ago for 30 bucks, because KirbyJack told me to do it!  Could be a 9.0 plus...

It's been a movie speculation book because it has the first appearance of Annihilus.  It also features the birth of Franklin Richards, but I'm pretty sure everyone hates that little runt.

I thought it was just for exploration of sub-space, and can't remember another reason.

You won't regret that purchase! But just make sure you read it!

I liked him as an infant, but after that? Not so much.

He had a very specific motivation. I'll give it today for other guesses, then answer tonight.

Here’s the answer.

Once again, Mr. Fantastic goes looking for trouble.

Reed gets a lot of flack for being such a square, but it takes just two panels to remind you why he's awesome.

FF #52. From early on (1980s) I knew this issue was meant for something big. Lee/Kirby in their prime, first black superhero, great cover, and hard to find in nice shape. In a way it was good that it was hard to find - I ended up with four copies:
