☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis 2011 collection from Marvel brings together issues of the Fantastic Four storyline that focuses on the dynamics of the team's ever-growing family, including the return of long-lost relatives and new additions to the clan. Written by Jonathan Hickman, the arc explores the bonds between Reed Richards, Susan Storm, Ben Grimm, and Johnny Storm as they navigate threats that test their unity. The volume collects Fantastic Four #583-588, featuring the debut of the Future Foundation and the introduction of a new character named Bentley-23.
In "The Fantastic Four!", the team is thrown into uncertainty when Reed, Johnny, and Ben vanish during the Secret War, leaving Sue to navigate the aftermath with a handful of Avengers. When they return, Sue is confronted with unexpected changes: Ben has chosen to stay behind, She-Hulk has joined the team, and her own personal journey with the baby brings new challenges. Written and illustrated by John Byrne, with colors by Glynis Wein and letters by Michael Higgins, this 2011 issue features a striking cover by Steve Epting.
In "Home Are the Heroes," Sue finds herself navigating the aftermath of the Secret War, left to piece together the mystery of Reed, Johnny, and Ben’s disappearance while managing the unexpected arrival of She-Hulk and the challenges of her own pregnancy. With the team reassembled in a new configuration, Sue must confront both the shifting dynamics of the Fantastic Four and the personal weight of what’s changed in their absence.
When the Fantastic Four fall to the rogue Skrull De'Lila, the alien fugitive flees to Monster Island—much to the Mole Man’s annoyance. Impersonating Sue Storm, De'Lila recruits a new team to stand against her own kind, turning the tide in a high-stakes game of deception and survival.
In "Reconstruction: Chapter One: From the Ridiculous to the Sublime," Sue and Reed take a rare vacation, leaving the team in the capable hands of T'Challa and Storm. When Michael Collins reaches out about the desecration of the grave of the fallen hero Gravity, the trail quickly points to the enigmatic figure of Epoch.
