  • Published between: February 2004 - July 2004
  • Creators: writer Brian Michael Bendis, Mark Millar, artist Adam Kubert
  • Plot outline: A young Reed Richards is recruited by a government think-tank after they are affected by his experiments.
  • Notes: Putting H.E.R.B.I.E. into the Ultimate Fantastic Four continuity immediately was a chief concern of author Brian Michael Bendis.[1]

Warren Ellis

Doom (#7–12)

  • Published between: August 2004 - January 2005
  • Creators: writer Warren Ellis, artist Stuart Immonen
  • Plot outline: Reed and his friends must learn to adapt to their new situation. Victor Van Damme, also affected by the accident, decides to get revenge.
  • First appearances:
  • Notes: In issue #9, Doom, Part 3, artist Stuart Immonen's depiction of the Human Torch's increasing power was influenced by the energy ball that consumes Neo-Tokyo in the Japanese manga Akira.[2]

N-Zone (#13–18)

  • Published between: January 2005 - June 2005
  • Creators: writer Warren Ellis, artist Adam Kubert
  • Plot outline: Issues #13-18 show the Ultimate Fantastic Four's first encounter with the bizarre and sadistic alien Nihil. Reed outfits a space shuttle, and the FF use it to travel to the N-Zone, a parallel universe experiencing heat death, an entropic state that signals the eventual end of that universe. Nihil follows them back to earth, and dies battling the FF and trying to take over the dimension.
  • First appearance: Nihil (based on Annihilus)
  • Notes: Artist Adam Kubert's depiction of Nihil's alien army closely resembles the Jawas from Star Wars, while their plasma weapons closely resemble the gaffi sticks of the Sand People.

Mike Carey

Think Tank (#19–20)

  • Published between: July 2005 - August 2005
  • Creators: writer Mike Carey, artist Jae Lee
  • Plot outline:In issues #19-20 the Fantastic Four are attacked and kidnapped by Rhona Burchill, who failed the Baxter Building test the day before Reed arrived. Ben, Sue and Johnny are taken down, but Reed revives them. After a brief battle Rhona escapes using a sort of holographic duplication defense. Not knowing which is the true Rhona, the team has no choice other than to let her go. Later, Reed receives a strange contact from somebody that looks strangely like him.
  • First appearance: Rhona Burchill (based on the Mad Thinker)
  • Notes:

Mark Millar returning

Ultimate Fantastic Four Annual #1: Enter the Inhumans

  • Published: October 2005
  • Creators: writer Mark Millar, artist Jae Lee
  • Plot outline: In the first Ultimate Fantastic Four Annual the Four run into the rogue Inhuman Crystal. Johnny sees her and instantly falls in love, similar to the Johnny and Crystal in the 616 continuity. She has run away from Attilan because she doesn't want to marry Maximus, brother of Black Bolt. The FF help her avoid the marriage, and she rewards Johnny with a kiss before the Inhumans depart.
  • First appearances: Inhumans: Black Bolt, Crystal, Maximus, Triton, Medusa, Karnak, Gorgon, Lockjaw

Crossover (#21–23)

Tomb of Namor (#24–26)

  • Published between: December 2005 - February 2006
  • Creators: writer Mark Millar, artist Greg Land
  • Plot outline: Reed, Sue and Ben explore Atlantis in a bathyscaphe. Namor surfaces, and the FF subdue him, with Reed noting that Namor's strength "is completely off the scale."[3] Namor makes various threats, in a misguided romantic overture to Sue. He leaves after threatening NY with a sea-giant; receiving a kiss from Sue as payment for not flooding the city.
  • First appearances: Namor
  • Notes:

President Thor (#27–29)

  • Published between: April 2006 - June 2006
  • Creators:writer Mark Millar, artist Greg Land
  • Plot outline:In issues #27-29 the Fantastic Four travel back in time and attempt to erase the accident which gave them their powers, inadvertently changing history so that Thor is the President of the United States and almost everyone on Earth has superpowers thanks to the Skrulls. Ben is the only unpowered human left, and he takes advantage of that fact to correct the timeline.
  • First appearances: Skrulls, Super-Skrull
  • Notes: In this storyline, the name "Chitauri" is retconned to be just the name of a faction within the Skrull race, as opposed to the name for the Skrull race as a whole.

Frightful (#30–32)

  • Published between: July 2006 - October 2006
  • Creators: writer Mark Millar, artist Greg Land
  • Plot outline:In issues #30-32 Johnny has one week to live, and only Doctor Doom can help him. Meanwhile, the Frightful Four escape. Ben spends time with Alicia, whom he met in issue #29. Doom has sickened Johnny, and he cures him in exchange for switching bodies with Reed. Dr. Doom battles the Frightful Four as well as exiling himself to the Zombie Universe along with the removed parasite from Jonny's body, and ends up battling the Zombie Galacti that just gained the powers of Galactus with the outcome of the fight unknown.
  • Notes: Due to Land's mistakes, Janet van Dyne is portrayed as being Caucasian, even though she is established to be of Asian descent in the Ultimate Marvel continuity, and wears one of her traditional Marvel 616 uniforms.[citation needed] Perhaps also due to Land's mistakes, Doom does not have his satyr-style legs, resembling "classic" Doctor Doom.[citation needed] This look is also in Ultimate Power, Ultimates 3, and Ultimatum.

Mike Carey returning

Ultimate Fantastic Four Annual #2

  • Published: October 2006
  • Creators: writer Mike Carey, artist Stuart Immonen, Frazer Irving

Meanwhile, Molekevic is explaining his plans to the Think Tank and goes into a lengthy recollection of his childhood in Yugoslavia, his work with the Soviet military, his studies in western Europe, and his fondness for wearing women's clothing. The Think Tank children eventually chase away Molekevic, the Fantastic Four and the government officials, intending to recolonize the subterranean city. The final page implies that their reactivation of the artificial sun either awakens or attracts the various giant monsters and abominations hiding in the depths, which serve as a defense for the Think Tank children from the government coming back for them.

With the help of the Surfer, Reed Richards restores the Earth to normal and turns the Psycho-man's mind into a childish persona, babbling about flowers and silver men.
