Fantastic Four #5

Fantastic Four #5 was kind of weird.  I say the issue was weird because this time the Fantastic Four Family head to ancient Rome to ask Jullius Caesar a question.  The kids and Johnny Storm (Human Torch) want to know if Caesar really did live with pirates and over pay his own ransom.  It turns out that Caesar was actually a time traveling alien and hilarity ensues.  Reid and Sue have some alone time to discuss Reid’s illness.  All ends well and the timeline is only a little changed.  We flash to what we are told is “Last November” and get to see Caesar has survived.  While I did call this issue weird I have to say it was a vast improvement in story telling reaching all the way to entertaining.
