Fantastic Four #10

The cover of this 2023 Panini France collection sets an appropriately dramatic tone for "Reckoning War (1/2)": the Fantastic Four — Mr. Fantastic, the Invisible Woman, the Human Torch ablaze, and the Thing — stand defiantly in the foreground, while two imposing, robed figures loom large against a darkened cityscape behind them, with a massive alien visage hovering ominously overhead. Carlos Pacheco's pencils and Rafael Fonteriz's inks give the scene real weight and scale, making the threat facing Marvel's First Family feel genuinely formidable. At 19 EUR, this French-language volume is a handsome entry point into one of the team's most ambitious modern story arcs.
