Cool book. Reed has been obsessed with building his "cube" ever since returning from his fight with Thanos and Drax . He's pretty much completed it, but doesn't have anything powerful enough to energize it. So he's decided he going to capture a star. He has some that he's picked out, as far as mathematically. He's looking at density, core mass, internal temp . . . stuff like that. But he has Sue pick which one he's going to attempt to snag. Not a very scientific way to choose. Plus I wonder if he's taken in to consideration if there's any planets orbiting the one's he's chosen. I mean, what if someone reached out across the cosmos and decided to take our star? The consequences wouldn't be very good. Anyways he snags something, but it's not what he expected. And whatever it is, has really thrown off our bio-system. There's storms, floods, Tsunamis, and the moon, which is supposed to be full . . . isn't. As one scientist says, "What could be large enough that it casts a shadow on the moon?" They finally reel it in to the lab, but it's not what he expected. It contains large amounts of stellar energy, but it doesn't radiate it. And . . . . it looks like a surf board. Of course we know it's the Silver Surfer's. But since they haven't met him yet, Reed and Sue don't. As Reed says at the end, "This isn't it. It was something else that we hooked. And it hasn't arrived yet." So next issue, we get to meet the Ultimate version of the Silver Surfer. Kinda' coinkidink since the movie's out now. Huh? But anyways, we also have to get the rest of the story on Enid. What's with that energy that she contains now? And what's up with Ben turning Blue for a while there when the alchemists put him back together? In the true Fantastic Four style, we got some cosmic issues to deal with here.
