In "Prison de chair...", John Byrne's gripping script and bold artwork bring a cosmic clash to the heart of Latveria, where Doom's desperate bid to reclaim his body ignites a dangerous alliance with the Beyonder. With Reed Richards trying to reason with the powerful entity and the fate of the Fantastic Four hanging in the balance, the stakes are higher than ever—especially when the Beyonder's intervention leads to an unexpected split. The cover by John Romita captures the tension in bold, dynamic lines, while Byrne's storytelling and Sinnott's inks deliver a layered, intense read.
