Fantastic Four #588

Fantastic Four #588 marks the end of an era — boldly bannered "Final Issue" — and Alan Davis and Mark Farmer's cover captures the weight of that moment with quiet, aching beauty. In the foreground, a green-skinned figure tenderly embraces a companion while the Thing stands close by, and behind them ghostly, luminous forms of the full team soar through a cosmic expanse, evoking both memory and loss. Jonathan Hickman's "Month of Mourning" epilogue to the "Three" arc promises an emotional close to one of Marvel's most beloved runs, rendered in colors by Paul Mounts that feel at once vast and deeply personal.
