When Doc Samson's accident turns their robot into a weapon against them, the resulting chaos forces a reckoning—both in the field and in the heart, where Betty's decision to marry Bruce adds weight to the storm brewing around them. Written and drawn by John Byrne, with inks by Keith Williams and colors by Andy Yanchus, the issue's cover by Byrne captures the tension with sharp, dramatic flair.
In "Terror in a Tiny Town," the Fantastic Four wake up in a seemingly ordinary town that mirrors their lives in unsettling ways—familiar faces, routines, and even their own names, but with subtle, creeping differences. Written by an unknown author and illustrated by an unknown artist, the story unfolds as the team begins to suspect their world isn't what it seems, trapped in a reality that feels just a little too perfect.
In "Baptism of Fire," Bruce’s obsession with defeating the Hulk pushes him to dangerous extremes, testing the limits of science and loyalty. When a training accident turns the Hulkbusters against Doc Samson, tensions explode—leaving one of them dead and Samson forced to confront the consequences. Amid the chaos, Bruce finds a fragile moment of peace: Betty agrees to marry him.
In "Remembrance of Things Past," Ben grapples with the lingering effects of his transformation, using Dr. Doom's time platform to send one of Reed's cures back to his younger self—hoping to rewrite his own past and reclaim his humanity. The story unfolds as a tense, introspective journey through memory and consequence, where every choice echoes across time.
