In 1961, Stan Lee and Jack Kirby lit the fuse of the greatest revolution in comic-book history - the Marvel Age of Comics - and it started right here, in the pages of FANTASTIC FOUR!

With the space race on, Reed Richards, Ben Grimm, Sue Storm and Johnny Storm shoot for the stars - but after their craft is bombarded by cosmic rays, they return to Earth with the startling powers of the Fantastic Four! These weren't just any super heroes, though - the Fantastic Four were a realistic, relatable, bickering and loveable family that couldn't pay their rent and didn't always love their powers.

Meet the new class!

The techno-organic aliens known as the Phalanx have targeted the next generation of mutants - and now Banshee, Jubilee and the White Queen must rescue Synch, Husk, M, Skin and Blink! But will all of them survive to attend the newly reopened Xavier's School? The sullen Chamber and mysterious Penance enroll as well - but who is the marrow-sucking monster called Emplate and what is his connection to one of the students? As the Gen X kids adjust to their new lives, romance blossoms and rivalries form even as they battle Orphan-Maker, Gene Nation and more! But what can their mutant powers do against...magic?

Scott Lobdell and Chris Bachalo's '90s sensation begins here!
