A brand-new take on Marvel’s First Family kicks off in Fantastic Four Omnibus #1 (2005), a landmark collection spotlighting the original creative team of Jack Kirby and Stan Lee. This definitive edition presents the foundational story “The Fantastic Four” with Kirby’s dynamic art and classic inks by Chic Stone, capturing the raw energy of the team’s earliest adventures. The cover, a striking collaboration by Kirby and George Klein, sets the tone for a legacy-defining era.
In "The Fantastic Four Meet the Skrulls from Outer Space!", the team launches a daring mission behind enemy lines, infiltrating the Skrull mothership and assuming the identities of their own spies. Using clever deception and a mix of old comic clippings, Mr. Fantastic tries to convince the Skrull hierarchy that Earth’s defenses are too formidable to overcome—before the truth of their ruse is uncovered.
In "The Fantastic Four in the Coming of... Sub-Mariner!", the team faces a monstrous threat when Giganto rampages through the city, forcing the Thing to make a daring move with a bomb. As chaos unfolds, the Human Torch intervenes, sending both Giganto and the Sub-Mariner crashing into the ocean—leaving the Atlantean warrior with a promise that echoes across the waves: "I'll be back!"
In "The Fantastic Four, in... 'Prisoners of Doctor Doom!'", the team is captured and brought to Doctor Doom’s American castle stronghold, where the villain devises a cruel test of their resolve. While the Thing, the Torch, and Mr. Fantastic are sent back in time to recover the legendary treasure of the pirate Blackbeard, their mission becomes a trial of survival, loyalty, and the limits of their powers.
In "The Fantastic Four in: Prisoners of the Puppet Master!", the Puppet Master orchestrates a daring jailbreak not for freedom, but to test his power against the mightiest heroes. When Invisible Girl sends out a desperate call for help, the full force of the Fantastic Four converges—only to find the Puppet Master already gone, leaving behind a web of traps and a challenge that’s far from over.
In "The Return of Doctor Doom!", the cunning tyrant returns with a vengeance, wielding the mysterious Ovoids to orchestrate a daring escape from exile. Using their advanced technology, he executes a shocking plan to swap bodies with Mr. Fantastic, setting the stage for a battle of wits and wills that threatens to unravel the Fantastic Four from within.
In "The Incredible Hulk," the Fantastic Four convene at a New Mexico base to strategize with Bruce Banner and his assistant Karl Kort on how to contain the rampaging Hulk. With tension mounting and the threat of destruction looming, the team must navigate the fragile line between science and survival.
When Reed Richards prepares for a journey to the Blue Area of the Moon, Soviet scientist Ivan Kragoff launches a bold countermove—training three apes to pilot a spaceship and seize the lunar territory for the communist empire. The Fantastic Four must race against time to stop the Red Ghost’s bizarre and dangerous plan before the moon falls into the wrong hands.
The Fantastic Four Battle... The Mad Thinker and His Awesome Android! sees the Mad Thinker orchestrating a high-stakes scheme to claim dominance over New York by assembling a coalition of gang leaders—each lured by tempting offers designed to split the team apart. While the Four are distracted by these individual distractions, the Thinker seizes the chance to use the Baxter Building as a fortress, channeling his genius into constructing the fearsome Awesome Android.
In "Prisoners of the Pharoah!", the Fantastic Four journey back to Ancient Egypt in a desperate search for a cure for Alicia's blindness, only to be captured by Rama-Tut, a cunning time traveler from the year 3000 who has long since claimed the throne of the pharaohs.
In "The Hate-Monger!", Nick Fury, now a colonel in the CIA, must rally the Fantastic Four against a dangerous new threat—despite them being under the mind-control of the Hate-Monger’s powerful Hate-Ray. With the team's unity shattered and their powers twisted by fear, Fury’s desperate gamble hinges on a fragile trust and a mission that could either save them—or destroy them.
In "The Return of the Mole Man!", the subterranean schemer sets a cunning trap by turning the Fantastic Four’s neighbors against them, then lures the team to a mysterious island for sale—only to have his old plans resurface beneath their feet.
In "The Battle of the Century, 'The Hulk Vs. the Thing'," the Hulk returns to New York consumed by rage after learning Rick Jones has abandoned him for the Avengers. With the Fantastic Four in his path, the Thing stands alone as the only one who might stop him.
In "We Have to Fight the X-Men!", the Puppet Master manipulates Professor X into summoning the X-Men against the Fantastic Four, setting a dangerous trap. When Xavier breaks free, the Mad Thinker unleashes his Android to crush both teams in a battle neither can afford.
