Stan Lee plotted and/or scripted 34 of the issues, and Jack Kirby penciled 10 of them.
These 35 issues of Strange Tales also parallel The Fantastic Four issues 7 through 40, and reading them in tandem is a rewarding experience. The stories are all lighthearted in tone, even silly sometimes (see, e.g., #130, 'Meet the Beatles!'), but all are FUN! Most run about 12 pages, and many co-star the ever-loving blue-eyed Thing.
Underappreciated Silver Age Marvel Series that Complements The Fantastic Fourįun stuff! This collection boasts a whopping 35 Human Torch stories from 1962 through 1965.
