The Fantastic Four: First Dreams
Description

Put a student on a magazine cover and see whether the story holds. This is a photographic composite built as a complete cover: a masthead in serif capitals, a portrait in the blue suit with one glove black and one white, and a tower and two launch spires standing behind me. The cover line reads Fantastic Dreams, and beneath it a smaller deck about an art student in New York telling the story of heroism through his childhood. The banner at the foot pairs my own name with a title I have not earned yet. Part of The Fantastic Four: First Dreams.

Mock magazine cover composite with a large serif masthead, a portrait in a blue Fantastic Four suit beside a futuristic tower and launch spires, and cover lines reading Fantastic Dreams.
