THE THING VS. THE MARVEL UNIVERSE - A 50-Page epic told entirely in splash pages! Ben Grimm, A. K. A. The Thing: He's the ever-lovin' idol of millions and powerhouse of the Fantastic Four. He's strong, he's kind, and he never gives up. And he's also tired, and he's sore, and he's grumpy. There's always a new threat facing the world or the galaxy or the universe - and somehow, he and the rest of the Fantastic Four are always the only ones who can stop it. Ben Grimm is sick and tired of it. He just wants a break! But when he returns to Earth after a solo mission in space to discover the Fantastic Four have turned against him - along with the rest of New York City, and, apparently, the entire world - he's got a mystery to solve... and a whole wide world to clobber. Ben Grimm takes on the entire planet in this special Marvel Anniversary issue - across 50 pages of incredible nonstop action so bold, so colossal, that the only pages that aren't splash pages are double-page spreads! •It's Marvel as you've always wanted to see it, at our biggest - our baddest - our most clobberingest! It's the wildest story we've ever published! It's Marvel All-on-One! Date Available: 08/20/2025
