    Default I love the Terrifics!

    For 4 issues straight this has been my favorite comic book. It's simple yet smart. I can't tell where each issues is going to go next.


    I love the chemistry between the characters. It doesn't rely on a lot of the gaudy and overused comic tropes. Every character has a distinct voice and organic role. The group doesn't feel cliched or forced. I just love this comic.




    Why Marvel can't write the Fantastic Four like this I have no idea. A breath of fresh air in the current comic landscape. Also the art has been very solid so far.

    Thoughts on where this story is going? Knock on wood this title lasts I have a really bad track record of falling in love with comics only to see them cancelled.

    I think down the road they might be able to tie this into Legion of Superheroes someway, with some future connection to Phantom Girl. I'm just very excited.

    Everything about this book just seems so right. It feels good to see Mister Terrific front and center. An awesome character with untapped potential. Lemire is changing that.
    Imagine being proud to have negative traits. I can’t relate.

    I am interested in the series but I haven't had a chance to visit a comic shop in a bit. I will pick it up when I get the chance.

    I’ve said it before but I’m loving this new niche that Lemire has made for Mr. Terrific. DC has tried to push him as a Reed Richards type character, but I love him as the classic science-adventure hero. Michael Holt is now DC’s Doc Savage and yes, Tom Strong. The kind of character that Dr. Venture Sr. was a parody of.

    What a series! Just finished #4 and it is hands down the best thing going. This book leaves you satisfied but still hungry for more. The art is perfect for this book.

    Agreed with all above. This is a wonderful (terrific?) book! An intriguing plot, with a great dynamic between the characters. The quality has been so high that I read each issue expecting to be let down...but so far, it has maintained its level of quality.
