Ultimatum: Fantastic Four Requiem #1

This 2009 Marvel one-shot brings a quiet, elegiac mood to the Ultimate Fantastic Four, and Pasqual Ferry's cover captures it beautifully — two young figures carrying luggage walk in the shadow of the Thing, while the Human Torch blazes above them all, the group framed against a fractured, golden background that feels unmistakably like a farewell. Writer Joe Pokaski, artist Robert Atkins, and inker Mark Morales bring their talents to "Requiem," a story that the somber title alone signals is something more reflective than a typical superhero adventure. If you've been following the Ultimatum event, this one-shot looks to offer a meaningful, personal coda for Marvel's First Family.
