PHILADELPHIA — The Fantastic Four — superheroes whose creation nearly 50 years ago helped usher in the Silver Age of comics for Marvel — is about to become a trio.
Marvel Comics said Wednesday that a member of the foursome — Mr. Fantastic, Invisible Woman, Human Torch and the Thing — will die in issue No. 587 next month.
But who will die? Executive editor Tom Brevoort says plenty of clues have been offered during the course of writer Jonathan Hickman’s run, including the current “Three” story line.
Readers will find out when “Fantastic Four” No. 587 is released in January, though it’ll be wrapped in a black polybag designed to keep snoops from finding out and spilling the news. The Associated Press
