Fantastic Four #509

All four members of Marvel's First Family charge forward together on this fiery cover by Mike Wieringo and Karl Kesel — the rocky, determined Thing leading the rush, Sue Storm and Mr. Fantastic pressing close behind, and the Human Torch blazing brilliantly in the background against a backdrop of flames and scorched earth. Writer Mark Waid kicks off "Hereafter Part 1" with a sense of urgent, unified purpose radiating from every panel before the story even begins. If you're following this run, issue #509 promises the kind of high-stakes teamwork that makes the Fantastic Four so compelling.
