FANTASTIC FOUR #191 (1978): The team breaks up

Reed has no powers, and because of that, he breaks up the entire team.

So team breaks up…And they really mean it!  (At least for a while.) 

Thing and Johnny say goodbye twice.

I don’t really get why they can’t go on with out him, but that’s the plot. Willie Lumpkin offers to join….

Things do indeed look bleak for the Fantastic Four.  But of course, they return. As a threesome.

Just to beat up the Plunderer, who is trying to loot their stuff before they move out. They’re still broken up.
