Sue Storm, and to a lesser extent the rest of the team, rebel against Reed's championing the government's Superhero Registration Act, and hunting down and imprisoning some of their former comrades. This leads to a breakup of the FF, and Ben Grimm's temporary sojourn to France (his adventures with another team there are the least interesting portion of the book). In all, though, this is a well-written and drawn story, and I especially liked Ben Grimm's agonizing over the proper response to the dilemma of Civil War. The Yancy Streeters were nicely presented, too; comic relief with devotion to country. The "Anniversary" story following the main event was a waste, but I liked Paul Pope's "A Day at the Races", an early look at the banter/friendship between the Torch and Spider-Man.
