I agree with that, mostly because of the centering -- that book is notoriously back-wrapped ("A ook-length classic of the credible!")  Beautiful whites and color strike as well, befitting the Curators.  

Green with envy...!  :banana:

I still remember the awe when I read Kurrgo's story for the first time. I told myself: this is different, somewhat simpler, but it echoed science fiction which I perceived as "classic" (I was about 11 and I had already peeked at a few things borrowed from my father, and some also scared me like the Quatermass trilogy, which of course was British but the "sense of wonder" was there).
That was probably where I realized how much the FF were "contemporary", new, fresh, and at the same time echoing "classic" mainstream science fiction, which of course I would have fully discovered years later (I was 17 when I first saw "The Forbidden Planet", and I immediately thought: hey, the "Krel" probably have something to do with the "Kree"). :)

This is the opening splash to issue # 7 ….. Kirby was so good at grabbing your attention when you turned to the first page :cloud9: GOD BLESS...
