Marvel Comics - Marvel Comics - Fantastic Four #87 - 9.3 EGC, June 1969. The Power and the Pride! – Part 4 of 4. Written by Stan Lee, penciled by Jack Kirby, inked by Joe Sinnott. Cover by Jack Kirby and Joe Sinnott. After narrowly escaping death in the previous issue, the Fantastic Four—an exceptional five—burst into Castle Doom to confront their greatest foe once and for all. But Doctor Doom greets them with disturbing courtesy, inviting them to a sumptuous banquet in the royal hall. What dangers lie beneath this apparent hospitality? Paradoxically, it won't be Doom himself who poses the most immediate threat, but rather his assistant Gustav Hauptmann, ready to turn the tables in a tense and unpredictable confrontation. The epilogue of the FF's European adventure ends with a singular, Latverian-style stalemate and the death of Gustav Hauptmann, an event destined to have repercussions for years to come.
