CLEVELAND, Ohio -- When the "Secret Wars" saga led to April, 2015, half of the amazing 4 disappeared.
Reed and Sue Richards and their two god-like babies, Franklin and Valeria, went off to recreate the universe or anything like that.
The ultimate members, Ben Grimm and Johnny Storm (aka The issue and the Human Torch), again to Earth and hooked up with other supergroups whereas awaiting the relaxation of the team to come back.
Readers had been skeptical, assuming that the crew could be reunited in a number of months. These damage-up storylines were general within the series seeing that the early sixties. but this turned into diverse, there turned into no sign of a reunion for greater than three years.
Then, a number of weeks in the past, Reed and Sue ultimately despatched out a distress call that they're able to return and, as soon as once again, we have a "outstanding 4" No. 1. For a look at the crew's background, wonder put collectively just a little of a heritage on its website.
And wonder is at last doing the group justice. Let's be sincere, the years were now not type to the FF before half of the quartet disappeared into the ether. The studies had been lacking that "whatever thing" that made them special to begin with. We might not even deliver up the fake wonderful four, referred to as "FF," starring Ant-Man and a number of wanna-bes, that we needed to tolerate for a yr while the precise FF went off to discover the universe in a pointless "get-them-out-of-the-manner" activity.
Sorry, but the books through Mike Allred and his family unit never seemed or felt correct to me.
Then there have been the entire rumors about wonder Comics and its daddy, Disney, now not desirous to promote the staggering 4 with comics because those movies (as unhealthy as they were) have been owned through Twentieth Century Fox. With the Disney-Fox merger authorised in July, all that bad blood grew to become irrelevant.
Of route, others said the movie talk become just a cover for the fact that the outstanding four, which turned into wonder's first superhero comic of the silver age, become simply played out.
something the causes, the ebook and the crew were long gone for three years.
writer Dan Slott turned into tapped to deliver them returned, and he rose to the challenge.
the first challenge is a masterpiece, establishing the return of the 4 by means of focusing on these left at the back of: Ben, Johnny and Dr. Doom and constructing expectations. Some enthusiasts complained that they desired the FF returned NOW! however in the commonplace scheme of things, i would opt for seeing the complete storyline play out with vogue.
concern 2 is on sale Sept. 12 and, when you are fortunate, make sure you be in a position to snag the first subject before then. it be price it.
