Fantastic Four by Jonathan Hickman: The Complete Collection #4
In "End of Line," Jonathan Hickman and Mike Choi deliver a stark, haunting reimagining of the Fantastic Four in an alternate timeline where the Nazis won World War II. Reed Richards, now a loyal servant of Hitler, leads his team—Susan Sturm, Johnny Sturm, and Benjamin Grimm—on a doomed mission into space, only to awaken with powers after a cosmic crash. The story unfolds with chilling intensity as the team’s loyalty fractures, leading to tragedy and a devastating reckoning. Cris Peter’s colors and Clayton Cowles’ lettering deepen the atmosphere, while Ryan Stegman’s cover captures the grim weight of this twisted legacy.
