Scourge kills Basilisk. Fury calls the FF to SHIELD's space station to investigate an anomaly which was caused by the explosion of the Baxter Building in space. Reed discovers that it is really a gateway to the Negative Zone and, when he goes to investigate, is captured by Blastaar. The Fantastic Four follow Reed into the Negative Zone and battle Blastaar but accidentally resurrect Annihilus.
