[edit] Synopsis
Reed Richards, Sue Richards, Benjamin Grimm, and Johnny Storm rocketed into outer space aboard an experimental starship, the first humans to attempt interstellar travel. But a freak encounter with cosmic radiation altered their lives forever, granting each amazing abilities! Forty years later, the greatest team of adventurers ever assembled continues to push the bounds of human exploration - discovering parallel dimensions, lost civilizations and hidden nations; initiating contact with alien races; and repelling all manner of threats to mankind, both terrestrial and cosmic! Now, Marvel's first family finds its members divided - their unique powers stretched to the absolute limit, their time-tested resolve pushed to the point of breaking. Each chapter of this quintessential collection focuses on one member of the cosmic quartet, as the team's greatest foes band together in an all-out assault on the FF!
