Written by STAN LEE, ROY THOMAS and ARCHIE GOODWIN. Art and cover by JOHN BUSCEMA.
The one and only First Family of Super-Heroing continue their mind-bogglingly imaginative adventures in stories crafted by some of the medium's greatest storytellers. Lead by Stan "The Man" Lee-in the culmination of his incomparable FF run-and the phenomenal artistry of John Buscema and Joe Sinnott, Mr. Fantastic, the Invisible Girl, the Human Torch and the ever-lovin' blue-eyed Thing face-off against their greatest adversary ever. In a word...Galactus! The world devourer returns and either the Silver Surfer must submit to his will or the Earth dies! It's a four-part epic that will make a True Believer out of comic fans young and old. That's worth the price of admission alone, but since we're so nice there's also the Human Torch's struggle to rescue his ladylove Crystal from the alchemical clutches of Diablo; a progressive parable of social consciousness in the Marvel Manner that Stan Lee championed; the secret of the Monster from the Lost Lagoon; and Roy Thomas' regular-series writing debut on a three-part saga featuring the menacing Mole Man and sultry Kala, Queen of the Netherworld-and topped of with a retelling of the FF's origin!
Guest-starring the Inhumans, the Black Panther, the world's weirdest babysitter-Agatha Harkness-and Richard Nixon, it's a comic extravaganza as only mighty Marvel can make them!
Hardcover, 272 pages, full color.

Written by ROY THOMAS and GERRY CONWAY. Art by JOHN BUSCEMA, ROSS ANDRU and RAMONA FRADON. Cover by JOHN BUSCEMA.
The MARVEL MASTERWORKS march on with the next collection of incomparable FANTASTIC FOUR adventures! When the Human Torch skips out for the Inhumans' hidden city and his girl Crystal, he doesn't find the reception he planned for when Quicksilver greets him. Meanwhile, the Frightful Four launch a surprise attack with their newest member - Thundra - that pushes Reed and Sue to the breaking point. Once the dust settles, the FF will be one fewer - because the Invisible Girl has quit! Of course, we wouldn't have the makings of an FF/Inhumans epic if Maximus the Mad didn't rear his head and make a power play for the Inhuman throne. By the time all is said and done, the Human Torch will be sporting a fiery new costume, and the Inhuman Queen Medusa will be the FF's newest member. And that's just for starters! Ahead of you are classic battles between the Thing and Thundra; the return of the towering Dragon Man and Gideon; the world's creepiest babysitter, Agatha Harkness; a bizarre trip back to the '50s courtesy of the Shaper of Worlds; and a reunion with Wyatt Wingfoot in a fight against one of the FF's oldest enemies, the Miracle Man! To top it off, we're also including a trip to the Negative Zone and the origin of its truly evil inhabitant, Annihilus. The villain's plan to harness the enormous powers in Franklin Richards will devastate the FF in a story that changed the Marvel Universe forevermore!
