The Rundown: A battle with Doom sends the Fantastic Four to different eras of the Earth.
Doom is in control of the world and the Fantastic Four will not let that stand. As the team takes on Doom’s forces and manage to breach his defenses to get to the man himself, Doom decides to end the threat of the Fantastic Four once and for all.
The members of the team find themselves falling from the sky and landing in different locations during different time periods with Johnny landing on an Earth before life, Ben tangling with dinosaurs, Reed finds himself in 13th century Europe and Sue emerges at the end of the Earth. In order to find each other and a way back, they each go searching for the Forever Stone is hopes of finding each other again.
The Story: North creates a fun, thrilling and entertaining story in this issue that reinforces everything that I love about the Fantastic Four and their relationship with each other while also showing how capable and resilient they are alone. Each vignette gives an insight into who they are as characters and I appreciate that they immediately get to work finding each other. I even liked that Doom factored in their relationship when crafting his attack. I like the mystery in this story and look forward to seeing what happens next.
The Art: Ramos delivers beautifully detailed and visually stunning art throughout the issue. I love the visual style of the story and how the characters affect their surroundings.
