The Fantastic Four #45 in context
Why collectors care
The first appearance of the Inhumans as a group, cover-dated December 1965, by Lee and Kirby. The Inhuman Royal Family became a major Marvel property, and this issue sits in the celebrated mid-60s Fantastic Four run.
How to identify it
Fantastic Four #45, December 1965. The precise claim: this is the first appearance of the Inhumans collectively, but individual members Medusa and Gorgon appeared in earlier issues, so it is not every member's debut.
Common mistakes
Treating this as the first appearance of every Inhuman. Medusa in particular debuted earlier in the run; confirm which character a listing is claiming.
Grade considerations
Mid-60s Marvel with the usual spine and corner concerns. Centering is a common limiter above CGC 8.
