“Shall Earth Endure?”

In "Shall Earth Endure?", the Fantastic Four face an impossible choice when Terrax hijacks Manhattan and threatens to destroy it unless the team forces Galactus to surrender. With Galactus weakened and Earth in peril, the heroes and their allies must stand against the cosmic devourer in a battle that tests their resolve. Written and illustrated by John Byrne, this pivotal issue features dynamic art and a gripping story that redefines the stakes of the FF’s long-standing conflict with Galactus, all rendered in bold colors by Glynis Wein and lettered by Jim Novak, with Byrne’s distinctive touch on the cover.
