james_desantis 's review for:
Fantastic Four by Jonathan Hickman, Vol. 1
by Jonathan Hickman
So as I'm reading Hickman's Avengers run I keep hearing I have to read his Fantastic Four to really enjoy Secret Wars. So...here we go!
Reed is a genius. Everyone knows this. When he begins to meet other versions of himself, all to save the multiverse, it all becomes about saving the entire universe/world/multiple worlds. However, it would come at a price to fix everything. We also have a little side story here where The Thing is down, and Johnny decides to travel to a new world as a vacation to get the big rock friend out of the gutter...but you know things aren't going to go well.
Good: The art is solid throughout, some very good colors, and interesting character designs. I loved the hell out of the family Dynamic. Anything with the kids and any family member stuff is great. I also thought it was interesting to see inside Reed's mindset in this one. Also Sue is awesome.
Bad: The JOhnny and Ben stuff was a little loopy and not that interesting. I also have a hard time caring TOO much about the multiverse stuff despite it being well written.
Overall this was good, almost great even. I'd go with a 3.5 out of 5 but I'm having a feeling this series will become better and better.
