Iceman goes it alone; tragedy strikes Angel; and Beast, Cyclops and Marvel Girl encounter a young mutant named Ororo! The X-Men head into space with the Fantastic Four, Sauron soars again, the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants returns, and the team faces the mysterious group the Promise!

Brace yourself for the most clobber-filled title on the shelves! The talented Steve Skroce teams Ben Grimm with heroes from across the Marvel Universe! 

It’s the Thing’s greatest adventure yet, with or without the Fantastic Four. And it begins with Ben and his incredible sparring partner, the Hulk, stranded on a distant alien world where the duo must protect an ancient people against legions of Deviant hordes — and ultimately face the wrath of a Celestial! 

Then, Ben teams up with Wolverine on Krakoa, and Doctor Strange crashes a Grimm family reunion. But when the Thing is banished to the bottomless pit of interstitial space between realities, the most unlikely ally of all awaits. 

Can Ben fight all his instincts and declare “Clobberin’ Time” alongside none other than Doctor Doom?!

Adam Strange is the hero of Rann, a man famous throughout the galaxy for his bravery and honor. After leading his adopted home to victory in a great planetary war, Adam and his wife, Alanna, retire to Earth, where they are greeted by cheers, awards, and parades. But not all is as happy and nice as it seems, as the decisions Adam made during battles on Rann come back to haunt his family and threaten the entire DC Universe.

This deluxe edition of the Hugo-nominated series collects STRANGE ADVENTURES #1-12, STRANGE ADVENTURES DIRECTOR'S CUT #1, a brand-new introduction by Tom King, an exclusive new cover by series artists Mitch Gerads and Evan Doc Shaner, plus over a dozen pages of behind-the-scenes extras.

Reunited once more! The Fantastic Four settle into their surprising new home — unaware that a mysterious threat has made it there first! As their knowledge of language itself begins to melt from their minds, the members of the First Family sink into disarray — and the greatest villain of all time grasps the chance to seal their Doom!

Then, Sue and Alicia spend some quality time together in town. But when they return, everything is different — and a very different Fantastic Four is formed! Can they save the reality that only they remember? 

Plus: Ben Grimm wakes up to find himself — alongside the house he was sleeping in and everything in it — in freefall through a colossal metal hole…falling all the way to the Earth’s core, where he’ll be cooked, crushed and destroyed! What a revoltin' development!
