Why does the link in the first post lead to a site that says "Classified Information," and does not show in any way a new F4 line-up?
Because looks like that information was supposed to be classified and someone let it out. Can you say oops!

HA! it did show a cover of Storm, Black Panther, Human Torch and Thing all together. However, the site took it down now.

I don't get what Marvel's thinking, here.
Now, I'm not a huge Marvel fan, and my FF knowledge is pitiful, but it seems to me that some teams can change members, and some teams just can't . X-Men, JLA, Avengers, Defenders, JSA ... they've been gaining and losing members since they were first introduced. You want to remove two members from the X-Men and replace them with two new members, and nobody will give a damn. Same with all the others.
But that Fantastic Four? The Fantastic Four are Mr. Fantastic, Invisible Woman, Human Torch, and Thing. Everybody knows this. I've never picked up an issue of Fantastic Four in my life, and I know their roster. There's litchen on Mars that knows the Fantastic Four's roster. They're not like the X-Men or the Avengers, where you can alter their roster and nobody cares. They're iconic.
Well, that's how it seems to me. I don't know what Marvel is thinking.
You kinda just answered your own question. Marvel is thinking "If we change the line up of the FF, people like Gregory will be sooo shocked, it's more likely to give us greater publicity and in turn greater sales. Then several months later (At the very, very most) we will bring Reed and Sue back."
Don't get me wrong I'm not criticising or condoning the new line up, I want to see what the storyline is like first. If it's anything like civil war itself then it should be good for a week or 10.

Bah, they took out the two interesting characters.
I'd rather see Sue, Reed, Storm and T'Challa, even if it could potentially turn into the double date team.
Maybe we'd get lucky enough to see some swinging action.

For some reason, I'm getting a kick out of imagining Doom trying to awkardly interact with them as if he's never seen a black person before.
Errr... can Doom touch your hair? Haha, it's like wool! Doom is tickled!

Storm is not a weakling. I'll let some Storm fans educate you here but just cause she can't make shields doesn't make her weak. She's definitely more powerful than Crystal and she was on the FF.
Um, No
Crystal can control all elements
Which means the weather as well as environmental manipulation
Crystal also isn't an annoying ***** like Storm

Actually Panther is very resourceful. He's beaten the Fantastic Four on his own before. Plus Storm is hella powerful when she cuts loose. Implying that the team is weak (or stupid) portrays a lack of knowledge about the characters
Storm isn't going to do **** to someone like Doom or Annihilus
Panther also, isn't nearly as resourceful or as smart as Reed
So yeah, its just going to be Thing and Torch fighting while Panther tells everyone why he's cool because he's black and Storm will just be a *****

Didn't she only short out the glove of his robot after going on a power boosting freak out?

That's why it's so funny. Nobody ever said anything about putting it in a comic.

Hudlin's interpretation of Doom was as accurate as JMS's interpretation of Gwen Stacey
