Wait. No. Slow down. If you’re allergic to spoilers then run! Run for the hills!
If you’re not allergic to spoilers and know which of the Fantastic Four died then it is safe to keep reading.
Still here? Good.
The new comic by Steve Epting and Jonathan Hickman, FF#1, is about The Future Foundation. See what they’ve done there? They get to keep the FF.
The problem is “Future Foundation” sounds like the sort of sinister evil organisation masquerading behind a charity front to me.
Spider-Man is back in the Fantastic Four too. Sorry, I mean, he’s a new member of the Fantastic Four (apparently The Avengers don’t have a non-compete cause in their contract).
I wonder if they’re being sponsored by Apple.
It also seems very clear that the Future Foundation will not stop at adding Spider-Man to their ranks. Art from the comic clearly suggests they’ll be adding a whole bunch more – including what look like two annoying blonde kids; perhaps three if the dude on the left below the devil is related to the two on the right. Wait? Below the devil? Spider-Man has teamed up with the devil? And a parrot.
Okay. Let’s just say The Future Foundation seems to have its work cut out if it wants to win fans around. What are your impressions?
