Marvel Knights 4 #5

Steve McNiven and Mark Morales deliver a striking cover for this 2004 Marvel Knights installment, depicting Sue Storm in her blue Fantastic Four uniform as a cascade of bullets bends and shatters around her invisible force field — a vivid showcase of her power rendered with cool, precise detail. Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa kicks off "The Pine Barrens" with this issue, bringing a grounded, Marvel Knights sensibility to Marvel's First Family. If you've been looking for a FF run with a darker, more intimate edge, this is a compelling place to start.
