I'm kinda curious how this is gonna play out. I love the way the artist draws Doom
Fantastic Four
Team » Fantastic Four appears in 5743 issues.
An intrepid group of astronauts: Reed Richards, Sue Storm, Johnny Storm, and Ben Grimm originally received their powers after being exposed to an immense amount of cosmic radiation during a trip into space. Mutated and given strange powers by this exposure, they became the Fantastic Four and dedicated their abilities to the good of humanity.
Unscripted Review: Fantastic Four #583
Steve Epting is the man.
I am excited for all this issue, story arc.... and I'm glad you both liked it so that means that this will be a great issue... I haven't read it but I want to...
I'm glad that this would be a good issue to jump into because I have wanted to jump into Hickman's run but for one reason or another I haven't been able to.
Here's some speculation; If Reed dies in "Three" is Val smart enough to replace him as the smart team member of the Fantastic Four? or Fantastic Three...
I loved this issue, I totally agree with Babs I am not a huge fan of FF but I lovvved this book.
If they kill Reed, do think that could be a way for the Sentry being brought back in since his little robot dude entrusted Reed with important info about the Sentry at the funeral?
Just a thought.
I've felt that the Fantastic Four has been one of the best superhero titles out there since Millar's run. I'm glad they got a quality writer like Hickman to continue the pace. I can't wait to see how this one pans out even though it'll be sad to see one of the FF go. I think it'll be either Sue or Reed. Reed seems to be the most logical choice since he did just make one selfless sacrifice for his family which makes me believe another might be on the way. Yet, I also have a strong feeling it's going to be Sue. We'll see...
Redd sorta gets on my nerves cause he's like the most serious and boring character so if it is him i don't mind but i do like him better than other characters> I do hope spiderman don't join the fantastic four
Well, does Spider-man really have to replace Reed? Didn't She-Hulk replace Thing while?
That's sort of odd for Babs to say her family isn't fantastic. I'd say uprooting from Brazil to move up to New York and raise a family sounds pretty amazing to me. That couldn't have been even slightly easy. Anyone who can pull that off is fantasic in my book.
I dont' think it's Sue etiher
I hope it's not!
she's one of my favorite women of marvel
@Babs: Why don't you like Sue Storm?????
I bet she'd like you
@Journey Into Chaos: Are you talking about these:" @IronSpidy-Rooney:
no one....yet
but the next arc for the FF is called Fantastic Three, so we'll see "
" Steve Epting is the man. "Other than Bryan Hitch, Epting is my favoirte artist, his run on Captain America was epic!
I personally don't think anyone will die, I know they've said someone will die, but everyone's throwing around "It's going to be Sue!" or "It'll be Johnny!" and really, why isn't thinking it's not going to be anyone? Sure if Reed does "die" he'll probably not be really dead, I mean come on! He's Mr. Fantastic, he's one of the smartest guy's on the planet, it'll probably end up him being trapped somewhere for a time, and then lead to a huge arc with him returning down the road. Doesn't mean this won't still be a great storyline, just thinking people shouldn't fight over who will die, just enjoy the story.
I think it will be Reed.
If The Thing or Johnny die it wouldn't quite alter things for the team as much, they'd be missed and it would be sad but I get the sense Marvel wants to change things up here. Twice in recent history Sue has been "killed", I don't think she'll be the one to die, I think it will probably be Reed. If he died, it would unfold the team majorly because Sue would be single, the team would be without a leader, and Valeria and Franklin would be without a father- that would open the doors to all kinds of developments in plotlines.
But Babs....you don't like Sue? Read "Marvel Knights: 4", it's an excellent comic that completely sold me on Sue! She's a fantastic character.
Flicked though this in the shop yesterday and i was very impressed, and came very very close to picking this up but I'm just gonna have to wait for the trade :(

Truthfully, I probably haven't read enough of the F4 to make an adequate judgement on whether or not I like Sue Storm. I'll definitely look into that series! Thanks for the recommendation. :)
glad to hear you're going to give her another shot
she's always been one of my favorite Marvel heroes and I think you'd really like her given the right source material ;)
I think it's either going to be Sue or Reed. Play the whole single parent thing for a while, until Marvel brings them back. They always do.
I think it will be Sue. She's the emotional and moral center for the team, and would have the biggest impact. So future-Sue died at some point. That's the future, and it may not happen that way - the future is always up for change (although the comics contradict themselves on that quite often). Spider-Man would be a great emotional and moral replacement for Sue, although the dynamic would obviously be different, since he's not family.
Reed has already "died" in the past, Ben is a New Avenger and so it's unlike it will be him, I think it's going to be one of the "Storm".
If Reed dies it opens so much more up. Sue showing he has brains too. And a real relationship with Namor can be explored.....
Im just glad to see that all the past stories that just ended abruptly, are finally coming together because it was beginning to bother me that they had all these stories showing new worlds and races and the next month they would just move to a new plot, so let the countdown begin!
Reed Richards must DIE!
