Amen to that. Silver Age Marvel had great coloring, way ahead of its time. To give credit where it's due, Stan Goldberg made most of the coloring choices at the time.

[/thumb] This issue was awesome. Byrne's art was indeed fantastic under the brush and pens of Jerry Ordway, and the story-telling was inventive and novel (to me, at the time) in its telling of two separate stories that ran through the issue, one across the top and the other , the bottom... it always stuck with me; the first story detailing Reed and Sue's battle with the witch hunter as shown on the cover, and second story somehow tied to ROM's victory over the Dire Wraiths... I really need to dig this out now!

Pov must have a special edition...or I do, mine doesn't have a second story.
I didn't buy FF (flip through it for free, sure) at the time, but I bought this one off the rack. I don't think I'd ever seen a purely B&W cover before. (Alpha Flight 3 & 6 came close, but not quite.)
I remember thinking the woman in middle of the cover was Storm, because her hair kinda looked like that at the time and maybe her powers could be doing whatever that was. But I figured it wasn't, because even though she was occasionally referred to as a "weather witch" a cover wouldn't do that.

Make mine mint--Goldberg is an unsung hero from the Marvel Age of Comics! If Cobie and/or FL start a Silver Age Marvel color appreciation thread, I, for one, will be very interested.

Another reprint for contrast. The color's not far off, but it's not anywhere near as good. The big blue strip across the top doesn't help, either.

Which do you like best? I gotta go with the deep blue color of the 25 cent version.
