One-sentence summary: Pretty basic Fantastic Four story, but there's nothing wrong with that.
Honestly, change the art around, turn down the emotions some, this story easily could have fit in the original Lee/Kirby FF. Sure, it has Storm and Black Panther in a minor role, but it wasn't that unusual to have guest superheroes in the original run either. The plot's certainly a classic: Sue gets kidnapped by evil rival of Reed (why are they always rivals of Reed? Why can't we have a supervillain who wants to kill Johnny to win a race/get more girls? Kill Ben Grimm so that he can be pestered by the Yancy Street Gang?), FF goes to the rescue.
Nothing's wrong with this sort of story. I'll admit, I like a bit more plot to my comics usually, but I still enjoyed this. Now if only they were constantly spewing exposition in alliteration...
