THE FOUR ARE NO MORE, SO TWO MUST DO! Something is very wrong with THE HUMAN TORCH and only THE THING can help him! It’s the Marvel Universe reunion you’ve all been waiting for (well, HALF of it, at least!).  Plus: What monumental secret has DOOM been hiding since the end of SECRET WARS, and how will it completely change the lives of Johnny Storm and Ben Grimm?

Will we finally get the Fantastic Four back?

Or maybe not...

Best quote from this article in regards to the Fantastic Four is from Hickman, "If you want someone to care about a book, write a story they care about.”

That could be true, but I am still on the conspiracy side that thinks Perlmutter is to blame.  

When you have titles that are flopping left and right and publishing crap like (to only name two) Unstoppable Wasp or Starbrand and Nightmask (remember THIS publishing gem?) at the same time literally pushing the hell out of titles like Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur or Squirrel Girl to the point of nausea, all the while thinking that having three ... THREE Black Panther titles is a good thing for sales, yet you still refuse to even try the FF ... Yeah, sorry, it aint about coming up with a "good" FF story.
 

Word is this is a test for FF ... maybe?

That could be good.  Maybe we should buy multiple copies and get those numbers up.

I believe Marvel is trying to go with the philosophy of 'time makes the heart grow fonder'

The longer the FF are gone, the more people will want it when it comes back.

Unless time goes too long, and people simple wouldn't care then either.
