File Name: Fantastic Four Short Reader's Guide
Version: 1.00
Compiled by Chris M. Cavers
This is a short reader's guide to the Fantastic Four. It lists stories
as well as cover dates.
This material is from the Official Marvel Index to the Fantastic Four
numbers 1-3,5-7 and 10 (so far).
I would like this to list the story titles and the story parts for
multi-issue stories. This is so you could know if you have all
parts of a story before reading some of it.
If you have any details to add to this list, please email me.
I hope to also get a crossreference with Fantastic Four stories that
are reprinted in other titles (Marvel's Greatest Comics, Marvel Tales, etc.)
