Fantastic Four #538

In "Street Fighting," the Thing grapples with the personal toll of the superhero Civil War as he sits by the hospital bed of the injured Human Torch, only to find that the conflict has spilled into the streets of Yancy Street. Written by J. Michael Straczynski and illustrated by Mike McKone, with inks by Andy Lanning, Kris Justice, and Cam Smith, this issue brings the ideological divide of the Marvel Universe into sharp, intimate focus. Adi Granov's striking cover captures the tension of the moment, perfectly framing the stakes of a battle that’s no longer just about heroes and laws—but about home.
