Fantastic Four #304 (Newsstand): The Thing’s Solo Act Gets Cosmic!
Website Sales Description:
Step right up, comic connoisseur, because Fantastic Four #304 (Newsstand Edition) is hitting your shelf like The Thing smashing through a brick wall! Fresh from the 1987 spinner rack, this issue’s got Ben Grimm flying solo—well, almost—on a cosmic caper that’s weirder than Reed Richards’ sock drawer. With Sharon Ventura along for the ride and a villainous twist hotter than Johnny Storm’s temper, this newsstand nugget’s a must-have for FF fans with a taste for the bizarre. Grab it before it’s worth more than Sue’s invisible yacht!

Highlights:
-
The Thing Goes Rogue: Ben Grimm’s ditching the team for a one-rock show, but don’t worry—Sharon Ventura’s there to keep him from clobberin’ everything in sight. It’s like The Odd Couple, but with more radiation!
-
Sharon’s She-Thing Warm-Up: She’s not orange and rocky yet, but this issue’s laying the groundwork for Sharon’s big She-Thing moment. Think of it as her “before” photo in the mutant makeover montage.
-
Cosmic Chaos Unleashed: A mysterious cosmic threat ties into Ben’s solo stint, proving even a newsstand comic can pack a universe-sized punch.
Current Value (April 2025):
Right now, a raw near-mint copy of FF #304 Newsstand is chilling at $8-$12—cheap enough to pair with a Slurpee from the corner store. Graded at CGC 9.8? You’re in the $40-$55 range, thanks to that sweet newsstand barcode and a growing love for ‘80s FF oddities. It’s not a goldmine yet, but it’s got that “sneaky good” vibe—like finding a $20 bill in your old jeans.

Expected Value Trends & Upcoming Events:
Get ready to stretch your expectations, because FF #304 could ride the cosmic coattails of the MCU’s Fantastic Four movie in 2025! With Sharon Ventura’s She-Thing arc bubbling up (fully popping in #306), this issue’s a tasty appetizer for her transformation tale. If she hits the big screen, collectors might swarm these prelude issues like Skrulls at a shapeshifting convention. The comic market’s at a projected $17.69 billion this year, and newsstand editions are hot with nostalgia buffs. Look for a 15-25% spike around the movie hype, and if She-Thing becomes a breakout star, this could climb 50%+ in a few years. It’s a rocky road to riches!

Key Character Appearances:
-
The Thing (Ben Grimm): The orange MVP goes lone wolf, proving he’s more than just Reed’s muscle.
-
Sharon Ventura: Pre-She-Thing and full of grit—think “sidekick with sass” on her way to stealing the spotlight.
-
Reed, Sue, and Johnny (Minor Roles): The rest of the FF take a backseat, but they’re still lurking like nosy siblings.
-
Cosmic Mystery Foe: A shadowy threat that’s weirder than a Negative Zone family reunion.
Why You Need It:
Fantastic Four #304 Newsstand Edition is a time capsule of ‘80s Marvel magic—Ben’s brooding, Sharon’s brewing, and the cosmic stakes are higher than Johnny’s ego. It’s the perfect prequel to the She-Thing saga, with all the charm of a gas-station grab. Snap it up before it’s hotter than the Human Torch at a chili cook-off!
