Weiringo
One of the greatest creative
pairings on FANTASTIC FOUR since Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, Mark Waid
and Mike Wieringo brought Marvel's First Family into a golden era -
and straight into one of their most monumental showdowns with the
greatest foe, Doctor Doom!
The Fantastic Four's
arch-nemesis, Doctor Doom, has leveled up by doing the unthinkable!
But what great sacrifice did Doom make to gain his frightful power
- and his terrifying new armor? Victor strikes at the very heart of
Marvel's First Family by targeting the children of Reed and Sue
Richards. To save Franklin and Valeria from their fates, the FF
must fight harder than ever before - and Mister Fantastic, ever the
scientist, must force himself to learn and believe in magic! Even
if they survive this deadly encounter, the emotional scars left
will not be gone anytime soon - so what can the Thing do to
help?
