A trip into the void goes horribly wrong after five scientists encounter a malevolent cosmic force known as Galactus. Blasted by a surge of the Power Cosmic, the four friends gain superhuman abilities, even as their physical forms begin to alter in grotesque ways. While Victor Von Doom is claimed as a Herald for Galactus, the others are left to rot in their new bodies. Reed Richards gains the ability to stretch and twist his form at will, but the process is so agonizing that he requires a specialized metal harness just to keep his shifting anatomy from collapsing. His friend Ben Grimm possesses immense strength, but only after being literally carved by scientists out of his own barely movable, rocky exterior. Johnny Storm can project and control fire, yet he takes on the appearance of a horrific burn victim every time he ignites, feeling the searing pain intensify the longer he stays "flamed on." His sister, Sue Storm, can vanish from sight, but her invisibility is a curse—her organs and bones remain hideously visible whenever she uses it. Warned that staying invisible too long could leave her trapped in that skeletal state forever, she must also master the ability to project force fields to survive. Together the team must harness their new abilities to prevent the herald of Galactus Victor Von Doom also infused with the power of cosmic from preparing the earth in arrival of Galactus.(Coming out August 7 2015)
