Empyre continues its rollout as we check in with Marvel's First Family as they meander around the universe.
The Fantastic Four (and family) find themselves having some vehicle problems in the depths of space, and the solution involves a side trip to a space casino that also happens to have a fighting arena.
There they find the representatives of two different races fighting it out - over and over again - while the customers place their bets.
This does not sit well with our heroes, happily enough.
It's all played fast and fun and in general good spirits, though it seems to have precious little to do with the impending intergalactic battle, although it does explain why the FF pop up at the end of the Avengers Empyre book.
So, nice art, decent story, but not really the kind of shocking turn of events you might expect for the kickoff to the latest "Event."
