Thrift Store Finds: Fantastic Four Universal Guide

For fifty cents, I found a copy of Fantastic Four: The Universal Guide by Tom DeFalco (Marvel Publishing, Inc 2007) this morning at a local thrift store. This five by eight book has articles such as "Fantastic Four Orgins", "Headquarters & Hardware" and "Jack Kirby's Galactus Trilogy". There are also interesting write ups on each of the members plus their friends and foes (yes, even H.E.R.B.I.E. is mentioned). While the front cover has been damaged, the eight stickers the size of trading cards are still intact inside. I am also not fond of the thrift store's new price tag method since it involves using tape (thankfully, they put the price tag on the back cover). Overall, this is a pretty fair thrift store find.
