Reed finds Sue with her midwives and Namor catches up with a defeated Torch. Reed taunts Namor as the Ultra-Weapon starts to take effect by taking the Atlanteans' water-breathing and turning them into air-breathers, which will force a mass emigration to the surface world where Namor will no longer hold any power. Though he's convinced he can get Sue back this way, Dorma points out that she and her unborn child won't survive the shock of transition in this state. Reed gradually recognizes the horror of his actions and changes his mind, but before he can get to the Ultra-Weapon, Krang dies trying to turn it off himself. After Reed disables the device and the danger is past, he agrees to finally let Sue go, just as her and Namor's son is born. Johnny, however, is not ready to forgive, and swears he'll get his sister back no matter who stands in his way.

Synopsis for "Chapter 3 Harvest of Shame!"

Quote1 Harm the woman I love, Dorma? Hardly Likely! But what's wrong with her? What have you done to my Sue?! She's so-- so large! Quote2
—Ladies' Man, Reed Richards

Reed finds Sue with her midwives and Namor catches up with a defeated Torch. Reed taunts Namor as the Ultra-Weapon starts to take effect by taking the Atlanteans' water-breathing and turning them into air-breathers, which will force a mass emigration to the surface world where Namor will no longer hold any power. Though he's convinced he can get Sue back this way, Dorma points out that she and her unborn child won't survive the shock of transition in this state. Reed gradually recognizes the horror of his actions and changes his mind, but before he can get to the Ultra-Weapon, Krang dies trying to turn it off himself. After Reed disables the device and the danger is past, he agrees to finally let Sue go, just as her and Namor's son is born. Johnny, however, is not ready to forgive, and swears he'll get his sister back no matter who stands in his way.
