Talking Empire on the Marvel Next Big Thing panel at San Diego Comic-Con@Home and thanks to Dan Slott and Al Ewing we got to hear more of those big Fantastic Four-changing plans that Marvel has been teasing of late.

Consider this their Anatomy Lesson… Not only were the cosmic rays that attacked the Fantastic Four a deliberate defense mechanism from this planet but Reed Richards, who has been beating himself up for decades over the shielding of the rocket ship not being strong enough, was guilty without reason.
