The Maggia buys the Baxter Building and evicts the Fantastic Four in a clever attempt to get their hands on their technology. The team does its best against a horde of Maggia agents who claim to be defending their building. However, the Fantastic Four manage to capture the Maggia's local leader, Top Man, which ends their threat. Jay's Notes:

Namor rescues Magneto (see X-Men #63) who then tries to convince the Prince of Atlantis to join him against the surface world.

The FF are granted time to deal with Namor before the U.S. army is mobilized. However, Magneto continues to manipulate events and forces a confrontation between the FF and Namor. Meanwhile, Magneto takes Sue and Lady Dorma captive and forces Namor and the FF to join his attack against the surface world. Jay's Notes:

In the Negative Zone, Annihilus confronts Janus and defeats him. Meanwhile, the Fantastic Four enter the Zone in search of Janus. The FF battle Annihilus while Janus makes a desperate gamble for power which ends in his destruction. Reed stays behind and holds off Annihilus while the others return to Earth. |

Reed faces his death as he's swept up into the anti-mater zone. Ben begins to behave oddly as Reed's last experiment on him has affected his mind. Agatha Harkness gives Reed the opportunity to escape the anti-matter zone and Annihilus, and return safely thanks to Johnny's help as well. Unfortunately, the Thing throws quite a tantrum and walks out on the team. |
