- Fantastic 4 Cracking Group — Italy, founded 1983
The twenty-sixth numbered intro from Fantastic 4 Cracking Group, coded by ADF. According to Ze Smasher — himself an F4CG member — ADF was the author and this intro was one of the most frequently used by the group to brand their cracks. F4CG was founded in Italy in 1983 by Ricky, making them one of the earliest cracking groups on the Commodore 64 and — as CSDb notes — arguably the longest-lived group on the platform, with over 1,600 documented releases. One commenter noted the intro despite its appeal had "annoying music," though the composer remains unidentified. The group's Italian roots placed them within the smaller but fiercely dedicated Southern European scene. Other F4CG intros in this collection include the top-ranked #14 F4CG-32 and #54 F4CG-43, among many others spanning the group's decade-long output.
