About the series
In 1987, Marvel brought together two of its flagship teams for a four-issue clash of ideologies, written by Chris Claremont with art by Jon Bogdanove. The series pits the X-Men's mutant-rights struggle against the Fantastic Four's more establishment-minded heroics, centering on a conflict over the fate of a powerful new being. Featuring key figures like Alison Blaire, Alex Summers, Betsy Braddock, Ben Grimm, and Erik Lehnsherr, this crossover explores the tensions between family and found family, duty and survival. It remains a notable snapshot of the era's superhero drama.
