Fantastic Four #8 Facsimile Edition Cover A Jack Kirby (Marvel Comics, 2025)Relive a classic with Fantastic Four #8 Facsimile Edition Cover A by Jack Kirby, a timeless collectible from VegasComics.com! Released August 13, 2025, this 32-page reprint of the 1962 issue, written by Stan Lee and illustrated by Jack Kirby, features key appearances by Reed Richards (Mister Fantastic), Sue Storm (Invisible Girl), Johnny Storm (Human Torch), Ben Grimm (The Thing), Puppet Master (first appearance), and Alicia Masters (first appearance). In “Prisoners of the Puppet Master!,” the Fantastic Four face the sinister Puppet Master, who uses radioactive clay puppets to control New York’s heroes, while Alicia, his blind stepdaughter, sparks a connection with Ben Grimm. This facsimile, including original ads, is part of Marvel’s reprint of the first twelve Fantastic Four issues.
Current Fair Market Value: Retailing at $4.99 (UPC: 75960621073200811), the Kirby Cover A is listed at $4.49-$5.99 on eBay, Midtown Comics, and Dark Tower Comics, with NM copies averaging $5-$7 due to its iconic art and historical significance.
Projected Fair Market Value: This issue could reach $8-$15 in 12-18 months for high-grade copies (9.8 CGC), driven by the Fantastic Four’s legacy, Puppet Master and Alicia’s debuts, and MCU buzz from The Fantastic Four: First Steps (July 2025). Values may hit $20-$25 if the film highlights Alicia or Puppet Master, though facsimile status may cap short-term spikes.
Investment Highlights: Kirby’s legendary cover, the introduction of key characters, and the MCU’s renewed focus on the Fantastic Four make this a prime collectible. The “All Ages” rating and faithful reprint enhance its appeal. Secure this historic issue at VegasComics.com to own a piece of Marvel’s First Family’s foundational saga!
