Collects Fantastic Four (1961) #269-277, Fantastic Four Annual (1963) #18, Thing (1983) #19, 23, material from Epic Illustrated (1980) #26-34. It begins with the FF, the Inhumans, a wedding, and a war between the Kree and Skrulls on the Moon! Then, the FF and Wyatt Wingfoot face a galactic menace who has landed in remote Oklahoma with a message: "I claim this planet!" The two-part tangle with Terminus is one for the ages! Meanwhile, Reed shares a tale of alien invasion by the giant green monster Gormuu before setting off on a time-traveling journey that will bring him up close with cowboys and aliens - and his time-tramping father! And as the relationship between Wyatt and She-Hulk grows more intimate, the demonic Mephisto rears his awful head - and the Thing returns from Battleworld! Plus: John Byrne's unfinished cosmic masterpiece "The Last Galactus Story!"
John Byrne has worked continuously in the comics industry as both writer and artist since 1975. After he initially collaborated with writer Chris Claremont on Iron Fist, Byrne and Claremont moved on to X-Men for a run still regarded as one of the title’s finest. Byrne contributed an equally famed stint on Fantastic Four, earning comparisons to the original Lee/Kirby issues for his imaginative plotlines and dynamic artwork. He also spun Alpha Flight into its own title. In 1986, he revamped DC’s flagship hero, Superman, reimagining the Man of Steel in a historic project heralded by a Time magazine cover. His remarkable contribution to the Marvel Universe extends to memorable associations with virtually every major hero, including celebrated runs on Captain America, Iron Man, Sensational She-Hulk, Namor the Sub-Mariner and Thing. In the 21st century, Byrne’s considerable body of work includes IDW’s Star Trek and Angel.
