Description"Trapped in the Sargasso of Space!"August 1979 This is the very very first page ever drawn by John Byrne on his legendary stage on Fantastic Four. The cover of that issue was drawn by Keith Pollard... Then... here it is! The first one! I'm very happy and grateful to add this piece of history to my collection. Byrne and Sinnott, what a combo!!!! The page has almost all. Title, credits, etc... are all original hand drawn. The page is full of characters. The whole FF team and the whole Challengers of Xandar (Powerhouse, Diamond Head, Nova, Crime Buster, Comet, Adora and Master Xar) . There are some nice details. Art is originally signed by John Byrne and Glynis Wein. Art has the original Marvel registration number "LG465". At the bottom of the page, it also can be seen the "first price"...$50!!!!!! "Infallible? We'll see." Reed Richards Social/Sharing |

Beautiful and historic splash! Byrne's run on FF is one of the top runs of anything, imo, so it's amazing to see the first bit of art. He came out of the corner swinging! Huge congrats
