Comic Book Cover Swipes Exposed #85 Fantastic Four

Filed under: Swiped: Comic Book Cover Swipes Exposed! — Doorman @ 11:40 am

After looking at hundreds of comic book covers, it becomes quickly apparent that not every cover is 100% original. Whether done intentionally or even underhandedly, there’s something about uncovering these “swipes” that adds a new element of fun to reading and collecting comics.

Fantastic Four #3 debuted the Baxter Building, the Fantastic-Car (and other inventions) along with a lesser-known villain named, Miracle Man (no! not that Miracleman!). 45 years later, a Black Panther cover paid homage to that issue.
