Marvel Super-Heroes Megazine #4

This item is a comic book titled 'Marvel Super-Heroes Megazine,' specifically issue number 4, as indicated by the '4' on the cover, published by Marvel Comics. The cover features a prominent illustration of the Incredible Hulk in the background, with Daredevil in the foreground, poised to strike. Below these main characters, there are three circular insets depicting The Thing (from Fantastic Four), a blonde female character (likely Invisible Woman/Sue Storm), and Iron Man's helmet. The comic has a glossy paper cover with vibrant, full-color printing. The primary colors on the cover include the Hulk's green, Daredevil's red, and a bright blue sky background. The title 'MEGAZINE' is shown in large, bold, yellow and orange lettering with a black outline, dominating the upper middle section of the cover. On the left side, there's a pink and green vertical box stating '96 BIG PAGES' and 'PRICE $2.95 US.' The top banner highlights featured characters: 'FANTASTIC FOUR • HULK • IRON MAN • DAREDEVIL.' Story titles listed on the left column include 'IN THIS ISSUE: THE FANTASTIC FOUR BATTLE EGO THE LIVING PLANET!', 'DAREDEVIL VERSUS THE HULK!', 'IRON MAN MATCHES WITS WITH DIABLO!', and 'BRUCE BANNER'S HULKBUSTERS TARGET THE HULK!'. The bottom left corner shows a barcode with '01' and '9281 01592'. The image suggests the comic is in good to very good condition, with some minor wear visible along the edges and corners, typical of a handled publication. There are no obvious creases, tears, or significant discoloration. The spine appears mostly intact. The artwork style is characteristic of late 20th-century American comic books, likely from the 1990s given the price point and overall aesthetic. The craftsmanship is typical of mass-produced comic publications, utilizing color printing on paper. The visible condition suggests it has been stored with some care but may not be in mint condition.
