Synopsis
Testing out his new power-ray, Reed accidentally causes Johnny to flame on and destroy his tux. After, meeting with Sue, Sue is upset that her father’s killers roam free. Vowing to get them, Reed commissions a special space craft with N.A.S.A. that would allow them to travel through sub-space to the Skrull home world.
Traveling there they fight with Morrat, the Skrull Warlord who has visions of conquest and wants to marry King Dorrek’s daughter Anelle. Battling the Fantastic Four, he defeats them and takes the entire group captive. When Anelle tells her father the king the Fantastic Four on their world, the enraged king finds Morrat’s actions treasonous and goes to find out what’s going on.
Meanwhile, thinking that the power-booster is a weapon, Morrat orders Reed to use it against his friends. Reed does just that and the restored FF battle Morrat and his Skrull army until the king arrives. The king orders Morrat to desist, prompting Morrat to order his men to kill the king. However when Anelle attempts to save her father, Morrat jumps into the line of fire. While Anelle is saved by Invisible Girl’s force field, Morrat is killed.
With Morrat destroyed, the king tells the Fantastic Four that it was Morrat who had visions of conquering Earth and tells them that they no longer need fear invasion from the Skrulls and allows them to return to Earth. The FF arrive home just in time to go through Reed and Sue’s practice ceremony.
Notes
Although Reed and Sue’s wedding rehearsal occurs here, the wedding itself will not take place until Fantastic Four Annual #3 (in Italy in F4C #39), published six months later.

Synopsis
Continued from last issue…
When Quasimodo attacks the Cape hoping to collect the computation power generated by the linked computer system Mar-Vell used to defeat Solam, he uses his powers to bring machines to life. Mar-Vell drops his Lawson guise to fight Quasimodo as Captain Marvel. During the fight, Mar-Vell is led to a theme park filled with animetronic machines modeled after humans in the 1930’s. When Mar-Vell defeats Quasimodo, he unleashes the virus he was given on the town of animetronic robots, giving the illusion that Mar-Vell had completed his task.
While Yon-Rogg is furious that Mar-Vell “completed” his mission, his attempt to make Una jealous of Carol Danvers, slowly starts to take hold over Una, in spite of her attempts to dismiss the possible attraction between Mar-Vell and Carol Danvers.
