This was fantastic.

Every single storyline is building up to this. All the behind scene moments all equal to the end that is coming. However, let's talk about the big return. Johnny Storm is BACK! Yes, from the dead. However, it actually makes freaking sense. Only Hickman can do that. His past and what happened was fucking badass. Then got the invasion coming and everyone is willing to fight back. A unlikely ally shows up and then...the future comes back to help the past.

This is the payoff after 3 good volumes and one amazing one, you get a followup that is stunning. I was so happy with the outcome, on the edge of my seat, from the tight and amazing dialogue, to the gorgeous art, to the ending that is both breath taking and then emotional. Overall, nothing is better than this for fantastic four that I read before. A 5 out of 5.
