Marvel Universe: Marvel Essentials Vol. 1 #4

4X kicks off in this issue as the X-Men try to claim Franklin Richards as one of their own. This is going to lead to a mammoth disagreement between Marvel’s premier mutants and the Fantastic Four. Take all that and then throw Doctor Doom into the mix and you’ve got the perfect recipe for all-out, far out mayhem.

As if that wasn’t enough for even the most fervent Marvel Maniac, Eddie Brock finds himself staring deep into the Abyss.

Reprinting material from 4X #1-2 and Venom (2018) #7-9.
