Marvel Comics

Marv Wolfman's Fantastic Four run represents the final pre-Byrne era — the creative tenure immediately before John Byrne's landmark reinvention of the team. Wolfman introduced the Frightful Four's most ambitious membership configuration, developed the Nova connection between his simultaneous run on that character and the FF, and used the team format to explore large-scale cosmic threats that his successor Byrne would later ground in more character-focused directions.

The Clone Saga reaches its conclusion in 1,288 pages of final revelations, impossible twists, and long-awaited answers. Who is the real Peter Parker? What happens to Ben Reilly? How does it all end? DeFalco, Mackie, and Bagley close a saga that ran for two years across every Spider-Man title and kept fandom actively engaged and debating throughout. Whether you love it or hate it, the Clone Saga is one of the most ambitious storytelling experiments in superhero comics history.
