You say that as if it's possible he won't come back.

Eh.

Better than I expected to be honest. We shall see.

McLegend 02-10-2011 07:18 PM

So this movie is related to the 3 X-men movies?

Rammsteinmad 02-10-2011 07:23 PM

Doesn't look too terrible, but not really tingling with anticipation.

Kalyx triaD 02-10-2011 08:05 PM

Gotta admit, looks watchable. Continuity gaffs still rub me wrong, I'll wait for more coverage.

McLegend 02-10-2011 08:07 PM

This is a prequel?

Reavant 02-10-2011 08:36 PM

damn... actually looks kinda cool

dronepool 02-10-2011 09:09 PM

First Class looks better than those dumb pics we had before.

Kalyx triaD 02-10-2011 09:16 PM

The slow, heavy rock track that's all the rage with trailers these days helps a bit too.

parkmania 02-10-2011 11:21 PM

So, Angel has dragonfly wings instead of "angel" wings...


:nono:

Kalyx triaD 02-10-2011 11:22 PM

She's fucking pretty, though.

But they should seriously call her Pixie.

LuigiD 02-10-2011 11:49 PM

Is that an alternate Bay of Pigs invasion with the X-Men involved? :naughty:

Wasp isn't a mutant.

For the last !@#$%ing time, it's based on a different angel.

She is in the ultimate universe. And they seem to like to mix and match 616 and ultimate un these movies.

So I finally went and wiki'd her. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angel_Salvadore .

I've still never heard of her, and am willing to bet that anyone with only casual knowledge of the X-Universe will join me in assuming a character named Angel will be a permutation of the Warren Worthington III character.

Rammsteinmad 02-11-2011 01:24 PM

Isn't she the one who had babies with Beak a few years back?

Edit: Decided not to be lazy and read the wikipedia page.

Edit: Oh what the fuck even worse this is the end of the Fantastic Four they're being renamed The Future Foundation WTF is this shit?

Seriously stupid stupid stupid stupid

mitch_h 02-12-2011 12:55 AM

I thought that X-Men trailer looked better than the lousy looking Thor and Green Lantern trailer.

Nonsense.

Nothing is off limits as long as there is good writing behind it. Winter Soldier should have taught everyone that.

I like bold moves like this one. It shows that people aren't willing to put creativity aside for the sake of offending traditionalist thinkers. That is probably why I like Grant Morrison, because it defines his career.

Now that isn't to say I am going to automatically praise anything like this. In fact, the risk is great with this type of move, because it is either a huge success, or a huge failure. There is no inbetween.

That said, I know enough about judging a book by it's cover, and how many times I've been wrong in doing so in this industry, to know that it would be unwise to condemn it, before I even read the fucking thing.

Not like the lineup hasn't been messed with before. Even if it'll likely go back to the original status quo some day, what's the harm in trying something new?

Well said.

Blah, blah, blah, wah! change, change!

Fantastic Four has been at it's best in years, this is just part of a greater scheme of things. As for Spider-Man replacing Johnny... uh hello? They were friends and Spider-Man was ALWAYS close to them. He's smart and powerful, very useful to the team. Don't like it? Read something else or there's always "classic" stuff out there. The goal here is to sell the book better than it has been doing and it needs an epic story, this is it. Keeping things stagnant and 'safe' for too long is never a good thing either.

It's not like this is permanent anyway, they have like 12 issues and then once sales start to lower, bam! time for issue 600 because FF is getting cut off after 588. Just enough to tell a year long story and start the third chapter with a reverted issue 600.

Don't worry I don't plan on reading it. I follow comics through Trades every so often and mostly through plot summaries. I still say those costumes are awful.

Isn't Spider-Man now a member of the Avengers, The New Avengers and the FF?

Fignuts 02-12-2011 06:24 PM

Characters being on multiple teams has never really bothered me.

To be fair, the Fantastic Four has been a major part of the Marvel Universe for so long, it's not like they'll be this way forever. I give it a year, two at the most, before the Human Torch comes back somehow and the Future Foundation becomes the Fab 4 again.

A year at most, I doubt they'll skip a chance to have issue 600. Unless they ignore the new numbering for some reason and go back to 589.

LoDownM 02-13-2011 05:26 PM

Digging Spideys White/Black color scheme for this.

Reavant 02-13-2011 06:21 PM

he looks like antivenom now

HeartBreakMan2k 02-13-2011 07:49 PM

So, I haven't read the story - BUT is there any possibility his "death" could be leading into the big Fear event? Like, his fear is that the F4 don't need him, and move on blah blah blah, and their fear is his death? Again, not sure how recent it is, but if we never saw him die - is it feasible?

If it is, I'll pick up the trades...

Reavant 02-14-2011 12:16 AM

thats some deep shit

lol, but is it feasible? Like, is it recent enough for it to be a precursor to the big event?

mitchables 02-16-2011 12:25 AM

wtf are those even webs on his mask? looks like a checkerboard pattern. :\

otherwise that costume looks pretty sweet i guess.

The Destroyer 02-16-2011 03:26 AM

I like the costume and the title.

LuigiD 02-16-2011 09:04 AM

Reminds me of this one a bit.
