FANTASTIC FOUR #24 (1964)

This post is like a painting.  Torch is showing off and reaching for the reporters, vainly, who have all turned their attention to Susan and her fashion plate hair.  Ben’s getting insulted by the press while he insults Johnny.  Ben and Johnny are always all about the insults.  And Reed is crooked, looking over at his girlfriend, realizing how far out of his league she is.

The rest of this issue….Not so poetic.

A juvenile alien called Infant Terrible with the ability to transform reality (kinda similar to Impossible Man) comes to Earth and makes hijinks.

Reed saves the day by literally tattling to the kids parents.

Sadly, this is one of the few duds in the first 100 issues of the FF. Even more sad: Infant Terrible will return in the late ’80s issues of Power Pack–when that series, which started strong, is past its prime.
