The Fifth Member of new Fantastic Four is...

[samurainoir]

Doctor Doom.


But does he deserve to wear white like a blushing bride? Can you imagine the what the laundry situation must be like in the Baster building these days?

Will Doom and co end up wearing pink as a result of Spidey dumping his regular costume in with the white load?

DOOM DEMANDS YOU USE FABRIC SOFTENER!

Valeria Richards made some sort of deal with Doom...that's why he's on the team apparently...

I can't believe they are pulling this utter crap during the 50th anniversary.

Let me be clear. Freedom Foundation #2 was a very good read.

Let me be clear. Freedom Foundation #2 was a very good read.

Agreed, as has Hickman's entire Fantastic Four run to date, as well as the SHIELD series.

I'm suspecting with all the time travel subplots in most of his books and interconnected characters, such as Reed Richard's dad, that it all ties together in a very cool way.

I wonder if the Time Travel in Astonishing Spider-man and Wolvering will tie in as well.

I stopped reading Fantastic Four about five or six years ago. I felt like the stories were repeating themselves and had run out of ideas. It does not suprise me that they are finally "jumping the shark" and scraping the barrel on lame ideas. Sad.....

They'd probably make more money reprinting old issues with new covers. At least new readers would have something good to read instead of that rewashed/retooled garbage.

Sorry. My vent.

>I felt like the stories were repeating themselves and had run out of ideas.

I noticed with the Marvel stuff that they all sort of ran out of ideas in the first hundred issues or so. I was surprised when I read the first bunch of Essential Fantastic Four at how many of the staples of the book had been established early on, and how often they reused story ideas.

Damn, I was hoping they would have picked Chuck Norris...
