Model Heroes

Give it up for Pete Von Sholly who poses the question, What If… Aurora had produced Fantastic Four model kits ‘back in the day’. Writer, artist, director, animator and recording artist, Pete has worn many hats during his career. He has storyboarded over a hundred feature films including Mars Attacks, The Mask and The Shawshank Redemption. Pete is also the creator of the graphic novels, Morbid and Extremely Weird Stories and the satirical magazines, Crazy Hip Groovy Go Go Way Out Monsters and Comic Book Nerd. You can find a treasure trove of Pete’s work at his website and blog and also purchase this set of fantasy boxes via morbidmonster.com

    I remember the Aurora company’s Marvel model adverts on the back covers of Marvel Comics always said, “More of the Fantastic Four coming soon.” I wish that “more” had included these babies!

    These would be a real nice set to have. Fond memories of my young Comic Book-dom in the ’63-’66 period were reading some stories about Mister Fantastic, Invisible Girl, Doctor Doom, The Thing, and The Human Torch. I had a friend who’s older brother collected them. I loved those stories.
