Civil War Chronicles #5

Feb 2008 · Marvel · 4.99 USD; 6.00 CAD
“The War at Home Part Three”

In "The War at Home Part Three," the Richards family fractures as Sue defies Reed to help Wildstreak escape the Baxter Building, igniting a personal rift that mirrors the larger conflict. With the Thing departing in protest and Tony Stark visiting the new Negative Zone prison, tensions reach a boiling point—loyalties tested, alliances strained, and the cost of the registration act becomes painfully personal. Written by J. Michael Straczynski and illustrated by Mike McKone, with inks by Andy Lanning and Cam Smith, colors by Paul Mounts, and letters by VC's Rus Wooton, the issue’s cover by Steve McNiven and Dexter Vines captures the storm at the heart of a divided household.

When Sue helps Wildstreak escape from the Baxter Building against her husband's wishes, the couple fight and the Civil War splits the Richards family right down the middle. The Thing also deserts Reed by informing him that he is leaving the country until the superhuman registration mess is cleared up. Tony and Peter stop by to take a look at the new superhuman prison that Mr. Fantastic has set up in the Negative Zone.
