Fantasy Masterpieces

About the series
A short-lived but memorable 1960s Marvel title, Fantasy Masterpieces ran for just 11 issues from 1966 to 1967, offering reprints of classic sci-fi and fantasy tales from the company's earlier Atlas era. Anchored by the work of writers Stan Lee, Larry Lieber, and Carl Burgos, alongside artists Jack Kirby, Burgos, and Dick Ayers, the series served as a nostalgic showcase for pre-superhero adventure stories. It matters as a fascinating time capsule, preserving the imaginative, monster-filled roots that paved the way for Marvel's later Silver Age success.
