Yup...the Barracuda arc was exactly that type of storyline. White collar criminals on some Enron/Madoff type stock scheme hire Barracuda to try to kill Frank before Frank can get to them..

Marquez is definitely coming back?

I really, REALLY like Marquez's art in issues 1-5. But I should be able to get used to Deodato's..

I loved it too and Ray S as Punisher.
I actually hadn't read ANY of Ennis' run until after watching PWZ. So you can imagine my delight when I finally got into Ennis' Punisher..

Since I'm re-reading Hickman's Complete FF, I thought a small Bentley-23 appreciation post was in order:

Good summary.

Just an added blurb: When looking back on the whole "Every boy needs a dad" theme in Hickman's FF run, its important to remember exactly how much of an unsupportive scumbag Maker's...

..just the stuff you mentioned. Secret Warriors & Shield (I believe) are not tied into Secret Wars.

Prolific, for sure.

I'm not your typical Hickman fanboy, particularly annoyed by stuff happening off panel too much. However, looking back I can honestly say that his and Ennis' work is what...

Crazy aint it? You'd like to think that if ONLY Reed knew just how much of a psychopath Maker was, he'd know better than to let that dude breathe air. But Reed probably figures "Well he IS a...

You're probably right

MAN you're right. The part with BG out living everyone (except Franklin, who is "off with the Gods") is so sad/powerful/interesting/moving. Then when Reed comes back from his trip to the...

I caught up with Hickman's FF run by reading the omnibus' (2 Volumes, like 800 pages ea.):

This was a great series.

I never "got" the Future Foundation until I read Hickman's FF run. I grew to really, really like all of them and how they interacted.

I miss the Moloids!

..No one cared to tell Bianchi that BG got blown away in issue #8?

Just because...:

Exactly, and THAT's the thing that I think is strange: the skips are un-Hickman like.
And your point about what has happened as far as the BP/Namor story line is spot on.

...Doesn't he deserve to rule though? He SAVED all the pieces of reality he could to make A world, but wasted any goodwill by not regenerating the ENTIRE multiverse?! Some ungrateful b-stards these...
