Fantastic Four Vol. 6

This final volume of the Fantastic Four is just the icing on the cake of Jonathan Hickman's run.  The first issue in this collection sees Nathaniel & Reed travel into the far future to discover that Ben Grimm outlives all of the members of the Fantastic Four causing Reed to realize how much he loves hanging out with his best friend.  Most of the stories in this collection are one & done stories showcasing the various characters.  The team travels to Wakanda in which the return of the Phoenix Force & the flooding of the African nation are foreshadowed; both of those events happen in Avengers vs. X-Men.  Many other things come full circle Bentley confronting the Wizard & Doom's fate & eventual rescue.  What this volume & the accompanying volume of FF do it to establish a new status quo for the next creative team on the world's greatest comic magazine.
