The storyline continues as the Fantastic 4 continue their normal superhero lives after the death of Dr. Doom. Reed Richards and Sue Storm are getting ready to get married when a strange character in the sky abruptly distracts the wedding. With the feeling of disturbance, the Fantastic 4 decide to regroup, only to find that a new enemy by the name of Silver Surfer has risen, and that they must save the world, once again.

Throughout the Marvel Comic Series, the Silver Surfer is known to be the strongest character ever created, with powers from cosmic energy. He has a silvery appearance from head to toe, and the one thing that all fans recognize him for, is his silver surfboard used to roam any where, sky or land.

With this sequel, and the buzz around the awesome Silver Surfer, this should save the franchise for its movies to come.
