Fantastic Four to die!
If they wanted it to really shock people, they'd make it a surprise, not tell people weeks/months ahead. People would just be going along and WHAMMO! Sue gets hit by a falling anvil.
Fantastic Four to be leveraged for short term sales bump, after which everything will return to status quo!

I think it's a fake-out and only one will survive. Which will be Johnny. Then Bendis will take over and next year Marvel will re-launch Fantastic Four, then add Secret Fantastic Four (Franklin Richards, Spidey, She-Hulk & Wolverine), Fantastic Four West (Hercules, Black Widow, Black Knight & Wolverine) and New Fantastic Four (Ms. Marvel, Ben Reilly, Hulk Hogan & Wolverine).

they need to lampshade the whole "big death issue" thing and have the death of squirrel girl. the cover can just have the grim reaper running for his life towards the reader yelling "what have you gotten me into?!"
Not only am I curious as to what kind of drugs Hickman is taking, I also wonder what the hell the reviewers are ingesting to heap such praise on his writing.

Oh.
Never mind.

It'll probably be Mister Fantastic. With all the stuff he's been messing up since he joined the Illuminati and whatnot he has it coming.
The Thing is safe because he's on the Avengers.
Invisible Woman is safe because if she's gone then her two reality-bending children would become neglected (again cause Mr. Fantastic is terribad) and turn into evil reality-bending teenagers that get assassinated by X-Force.
The Human Torch...isn't relevant enough to really add a ripple to the Marvel Universe.

Even though Richard Reed brought this on, his enemies will kill Sue as a way of sending a message or otherwise holding him accountable. The comics will be about the guilt that he carries around, and everything will think that it's really dark and edgy that the wife was removed from the comic. Again.
The moment Spider-man took of his mask I have stopped reading Marvel comics.

Will the removal of one of the team, does the Fantastic Four become the Threesome?
Hmmm. I'm stuck thinking it'll be Johnny or Ben. Though the removal of the fire throwing hero, lets not figure out how he's not burning people alive, could be what they're doing.
But Marcian's theory seems like it might be the way for them to go.

Hmmm...got to thinking...Reed dies. Doom takes his place as resident genius! Gets with Sue! Loses the scars, starts to grey at the temples. Loses his memory and thinks he's Reed. the they retcon it never happened as Doom attacks!

Reed and Doom admit their love for each other and sneak off. Sue finds out, goes psycho, and wipes out a major city with one of Reed's little toys in order to kill them both.

It'll be Sue because all women eventually end up in refrigerators.
they say it'll cause ripples to coarse (sp?) through the Marvel Universe?
$10 says it's The Thing that dies.
Are they also going to have a team consisting of Wolverine, Wolverine, Wolverine, and Wolverine?

The Watcher enlists the aid of Wolverine, Days of Future Past Wolverine, Vampire Wolverine, and X-Babies Wolverine in order to stop some cosmic threat. Something involving Galactus or Dormammu or Mephisto. The only stipulation is that the Wolvie-Team must fight an army of murderous fluffy, pink bunnies at some point.
I've never read a Fantastic Four comic, but I'll call this right now:

And for that even Pym is on the list of potential assassins for this arc.

That's a good theory. I revise my personal theory crafting to add the Invisible Woman as a candidate due to proxy revenge.

i predict that whatever the storyline death will be it will be terribly done and very temporary.

I wonder if something is wrong with me. I saw the title of the thread, and my first thought was "What, why not get rid of all of them?"

And 2 months from now Spidey dies. Well "Ultimate" Spidey, but whateves. Seriously Marvel, way to beat a dead Bucky.
