John Byrne Fantastic Four 253 Pages

Below are some vintage John Byrne Fantastic Four pages. I've long been a collector of Byrne FF art, and it has taken me 8 years to find pages of this quality. Unlike later FF pages, which were done in magic marker, these pages are all done in traditional "pen and ink", and the inking is exceptional - easily Byrne's best work. I've written about the difficulty in finding good Byrne FF art and the various quality in his inking in articles for the CFA-APA. You can read them here:
