“Central City Does Not Answer!”

In "Central City Does Not Answer!", the Fantastic Four and the West Coast Avengers confront a mysterious black dome encasing Central City, a phenomenon that cuts off all communication and leaves the city in eerie silence. Inside, the Fantastic Four discover towering statues of themselves, hinting at a deeper mystery tied to their own legacy. Written and illustrated by John Byrne, with inks by Al Gordon and colors by Glynis Oliver, this 1986 issue features a cover by David Ross and Joe Rubinstein.
