We're diving back into the Jonathan Hickman run on FF, where we blow through the Black Bolt/Kree stuff as quickly as fast as we can so we can get to the good stuff. That includes our heroes walking through a door which is also a guy and Dr. Doom really Dooming out over getting set on fire!

Covering FF #6-11.
