Wow- That's one of the very few Marvel comic related things from the 1960-1975 period I've never seen or heard of before. Is that a Fanzine or official publication?

That's an official publication, published by Odhams in the U.K.

 

I've got some Odhams stuff around the house here somewhere, stuff like 'SMASH!' and 'POW!'

 

Gawd, that brings back some memories :)

Thanks Kenners, to elaborate, Fantastic was a weekly comic published by Odhams in the late sixties, it reprinted early Marvel stories, x-men, Thor, Iron man etc, they also published three annuals, 1968, 1969 and 1970, just missed out on the 1970 when I got this one.

They are all hard to find in nice shape.

'Fantastic' and 'Pow!' were the books that first introduced me to American super-hero comics.  Lot to answer for there. lol
