Graeme McMillan and Jeff Lester continue their look at one of the defining runs on FF and the 80s, that of writer-artist John Byrne. Join us as we look at issues #238 through #247, as Byrne really kicks his run into high gear with super-compressed mini-epics featuring new status quos for Galactus, the Inhumans, Dr. Doom, Ben Grimm, and much, much more. But are these issues really better than the ones that preceded them? Or just more ambitious?
