"The New, Nefarious, and Downright Nasty Frightful Four!" Script by Roy Thomas. Art by Herb Trimpe. Cover by Claudio Castellini. The Wingless Wizard breaks out of prison! And the first thing on his agenda is re-forming the Frightful Four! But he doesn't want to bring back the Sandman and Trapster. He wants a new team! So the Wizard assembles a rather eclectic foursome with Klaw, the She-Thing (aka Sharon Ventura), and the Red Ghost! As expected the second thing on the Wizard's agenda is destroying the new-look Fantastic Four. So using his high-tech house as a trap, the Wizard lures the FF inside for one-on-one battles against his FF. The Invisible Woman vs. the She-Thing! Ant-Man vs. Klaw! The Thing vs. the Red Ghost and his Super-Apes! And the Human Torch vs. the Wizard! The frightful quartet are winning their matches until the Wizard gets careless with one of his pockets of non-causality. Will the introduction of random factors lead to four fantastic victories? Second feature: Two-page pin-up of the Invisible Woman, Human Torch, and Thing by Brian Kong and Mike DeCarlo. (Notes: Ant-Man joined the FF in Fantastic Four 384. There is a continuity discrepancy between FF 384 and Fantastic Four Unlimited #5.) 64 pages. Cover price $3.95.
