Appartiene alle SerieFantastic Four (Waid 3-4)
It seemed like a simple enough idea at the time. Now that their arch-enemy, Doctor Doom, had seemingly perished, the Fantastic Four would journey into his nation of Latveria, disassemble its war machine and set its oppressed citizens free. But what appeared to be a black-and-white situation quickly turns a murky shade of grey, and Reed Richards and his family find themselves besieged on all sides - both by those they thought of as their allies, and by the very people they are trying to save. And in the awful aftermath of their authoritative action, three of the Four must contend with the defenses of the afterlife - and storm the gates of Heaven itself to rescue a fallen teammate. They've faced Galactus, the destroyer of everything; now, they face the creator of everything, as the FF are reunited in the hereafter. Plus: The Fantastic Four have a lot to answer for - and when you're trying to regain the trust of cynical New Yorkers, is associating with a certain misunderstood wall-crawler really a wise move?

In this volume, he takes it one step further, revealing Doom as something just this side of Hitler. Then he proceeds to assassinate the character of Mr. Fantastic. Reed Richards, shaken by recent events, completely loses his shit and attempts to take over Latveria, obliterate Doom's legacy, and bring freedom to a bunch of people who weren't doing too badly to begin with. He dupes his teammates, who have no idea of his real intentions.
Reed's actions upset the U.N., the U.S. government, and many others. (Realizing that these stories were originally published 2003-2004, I wondered if this was some kind of political commentary. If so, it's poorly conceived.)
In the second story arc, Reed journeys to the afterlife to bring back a fallen friend. Considering the content, this is actually handled pretty well.
Then we have a two-part story where the Human Torch solicits Spider-Man's advice on how to live in a world that hates him. This story is funny, if a bit too silly at times.
Finally, a piece about the reconciliation of Reed and his wife. A cute story illustrated by Paul Smith that ends the book on a positive note. (Why couldn't Smith have been the regular artist on this series? He makes the other guys look like amateurs.)
Definitely a step down from the first collection, but it has some good bits and I can't say it didn't surprise me, for better or for worse. ( )
