In almost every way, the new Matt Shakman film, The Fantastic Four: First Steps, is a perfect introduction to the world and rich history of the beloved superpowered family. For longtime fans, or fans who want to get a sense of why these first Fantastic comics were so pivotal, the Fantastic Four new 2025 slipcase hardcover, edited by Jonathan Lethem, is an incredible book, and also, a gorgeous piece of art. Stan Lee/Jack Kirby/Marvel/The Folio SocietyTo put it another way, the new, lush Fantastic Four Folio Society omnibus is readable, in a way that back issues from the 1960s of The Fantastic Four are not.

Fantastic Four, selected by Jonathan Lethem, published by The Folio Society, is available now.
