Fantastic Four #11

From the WildStorm-era reimagining of Marvel's first family, Fantastic Four #11 (1997) arrives with a cover by Brett Booth and Tom McWeeney that crackles with menace — a massive, armored villain dominates the foreground, wielding a staff and looming over a defiant Sue Storm, while the Thing and Mr. Fantastic are visible in the fiery chaos behind them. A shadowy green face inset in the upper corner hints at an even greater threat lurking in the wings. With Jim Lee and Brandon Choi at the helm and a story titled "Hark the Herald …," this issue promises the kind of high-stakes tension that made this 1997 run such an energetic chapter in the team's history.
