You may have heard that Fantastic Four is coming to an end in the not too distant future. Some people are a little bit upset about it.

There’s not a whole lot we can do about that except to enjoy the first family’s final (for now) story, “The End is FOURever.” It kicks off in Fantastic Four #642, with James Robinson and Leonard Kirk bringing us a new version of the Invaders hunting for Reed Richards. That’d be the new Captain America, Doc Green, Namor and the original Human Torch, which sounds like a pretty formidable unit.

Meanwhile, the Future Foundation kids are still missing, and the mastermind behind the orchestrated downfall of the Fantastic Four reveals his scheme, as super villains often do. It involves Franklin Richards and his seemingly out of control powers too.

That sounds like quite the handful even for a team that has almost literally seen everything. You can see how the end begins when Fantastic Four #642 hits stores and digital on January 14, but you don’t need to wait to get a first look at a few pages and the alternate cover by Jim Cheung. Just keep scrolling down.
