by Jonathan Hickman (Author), Dale Eaglesham (Illustrator), Joe Quesada

Features an exclusive foreword by Fantastic Four: First Steps director Matt Shakman.

Includes a brand-new introduction by author Jonathan Hickman.

Presented in a newly designed book-format edition.

Jonathan Hickman (Secret Wars, East of West) transforms the Fantastic Four, shifting them from a superhero family to a future-shaping think tank, the Future Foundation.

SOLVE EVERYTHING

Superstar writer Jonathan Hickman revamps and redefines Marvel's First Family in a sweeping and epic saga that crosses time, space and reality -- but still finds its themes in family. And it all begins when Mister Fantastic decides to solve everything!

A series of amazing revelations come together in quick succession: The Old Kingdom of Atlantis is discovered under thick Antarctic ice. Alien "Inhumans" from throughout the galaxy converge on Earth. A race of super-intelligent underground dwellers takes possession of a high-tech laboratory. And a religious cult in Manhattan threatens to cause an interdimensional invasion.

Fate will play an awful hand in tying these disparate events together in a gripping drama that tests the fortitude of Marvel's First Family like never before.
