The Official Fantastic Four Thread

What the hell is a wheelhouse?

While I don't think JMS has done a bad job on FF, I'll be quite interested to see someone new on the title - if it's a good writer, at least.

Millar...I don't know about. I LOVE his Ultimate stuff. Some of my favorite comics ever. But so far, for me at least, his in-616 stuff (MKSM, CW) has been very subpar to what he's done in the Ultimate U.

Well that comparison draws the assumption that his Ultimate work is actually good.

Billy Dee just made fun of you.

Billy Dee just made fun of you.

But that means im Han Solo, so ill take the trade off.

 

[CConn]

Actually, I more thinking he was pointing at you, and calling you mean names to Han who looks on in shock and slight disgust, but whatever.

You could be Leia.

I always figured he was a jawa

 

[CConn]

He did try to sell me a piece of scrap metal the other day.

I didn't buy it, but I must say, it was a pretty fair price.

 

[Primal Slayer]

Well we finally know who will be taking over the Fantastic Four now....

Personally I think it will be interesting, espically since I wasnt expecting these two.

Spoiler

Johnny/Thing/Storm/Black Panther

 

[Not Jake]

moer liek teh blacktastic bore

 

[Roughneck]

Huh....BTW you should add more text, even though the lineup is under Spoiler Tags anyone who scrolls over the title gets a little preiview and it says the lineup, some folks could get mad,


I kinda figured it would be those two.....It's the Ben and Johnny that surprise me

 

[Kool-Aid]

Damn.

Ahhhh thank you for telling me that.

 

[Roughneck]

No Worries,


Still think that is such an odd team, Are they gonna stay in Africa all the time?

Also, what's gonna be up with Reed and Sue, are the gonna break up and go seperate ways or do they reconsile and leave somewhere with the kids together?

 

[Roughneck]

I guess this debunks my idea of Thing joining the new Champions

NOTE: New Champions is just a speculation at this point.

 

[The Question]

This seems really bad to me. Taking Reed out of the team basically ruins the whole explorer/scientist angle of the FF.

 

[Anubis]

Looks like Reed and Sue get back together and go off somewhere while this team takes over for them.

That's the way I feel about it. BP's got better things to do with his time besides exploring alternate dimensions and stuff like that. You know, the sorta thing the FF usually deal with? I don't really see what they plan on doing. The FF have never been what you'd call a Super Team like the Avengers or anything. I never understood any of the other line up changes that didn't include Reed in the team.

 

[deathshead2]

Hmm I don't know about this line up. But DM is writing and he hasn't failed me yet if anyone can make it work its him.

 

[Crowforge]

Two flying elementals?

 

[Primal Slayer]

Storm and T'Challa have decieded to stay in the US for awhile so it will still be in the US. And ya Sue and Reed will probably try to work out their marriage. Even though I wouldnt have minded them getting a seperation for about a year then coming back together. But I was hoping that Sue and Johnny would be on the team plus two new people.

 

[Kirk Langstrom]

Excellent!

Exactly. The FF's supposed to be about exploration and charting the uncharted. Really, the best FF stories were reminicent of the old Doc Savage pulps. That's why I really loved Ultimate Fantastic Four. It really harkened back to those old Doc Savage style exploration stories.

 

[Anubis]

I'll give it a shot. McDuffie is a good writer and anything that gives BP more exposure is a good thing in my book, but I have my reservations.

 

[Doc Destruction]

Pass.

 

[supermarvelman]

Well I think it kinda makes sense for T'Challa and Storm to fill in for Reed and Sue. T'Challa was basically telling Reed to pay more attention to Sue in CW #3, so eventhough he has a whole country to run, he also wants to help a friend out in need. It will be good for Reed, he obviously has gotten to caught up in his work, so I dont think Johnny or Ben mind if space exploration is on hold for a couple weeks/months.

When Reed and Sue return they will be back to being the Fantastic Four everbody knows and loves.
