Fantastic Four #4 Review and Spoilers

[Digifiend]

And who is the woman who fired the distress signal? I’m thinking a miscolored Whiz Kid?

Just a civilian, probably. Whiz Kid is dead.

Why would a regular civilian have that “gun” though? She clearly has some connection to The Fantastix.

Whiz Kid “apparently died”, it's not confirmed.

At this point, my headcanon is just that Eliot is in love with Dirk. That's why he will always go back to the Wrecking Crew, no matter how many times he is told he's out of their league. Also, why temp Bulldozer?

1. Thunder ball has a steady girlfriend (see: Illuminati series)

2. That's Bulldozer's daughter

[Michael Watkins]

Thunderball is the most educated out of all of them. It still has yet to be explored what drove this trained scientist to a life of crime, and keeping company with folks who aren't that bright to begin with...

He was imprisoned for theft of nuclear secrets. He joined the wrecking crew for power and a chance to escape prison.

Ugh... Dan Slott didn't even bother to confirm her death (or Spinner's) in his last issue of ATI, but instead wasted pages about Wasp's "death". A character who wasn't even in the comics.

Do you really think the Baxter Building is manned by only four people? Of course there's some sort of support crew.

[Hypestyle]

hopefully the Fantastix don't turn out to be skrulls or other evil folks in disguise. we'll see how this goes.. maybe they get a spin off one-shot? hmm..

[Gaastra]

Yeah, looks like the Punisher Pack's existence is an outright continuity mistake at this point. Frank was already taken and Alex shouldn't be there to be Warped.

Wasn't there four other punishers at one point?

No, I really think this is a comic book and that the dark haired woman is a specific character.

They're the Liberteens.

She could have been depowered instead of killed.

Cool preview.
I doubt that the "Fantastix" will be able to win the Wrecking Crew, however the Wrecking Crew barely escaped from Teen Jean Grey recently. So who knows.

I hope they become a jr. FF team, akin to Young Avengers or New X-Men

That's what I'm kind of hoping for.

The Future Foundation was more about the science and exploration aspect, the Fantastix should be more about the superheroing.

[Crimz]

I thought the issue was fine, the usual decompressed issue after something big happens.

spoilers:

This was mainly an issue tying up loose ends I like some of the interactions, especially Alicia's with Ben and Franklin The Fantastix were 'meh' which may have been the intention Sue is just kind of... there. I'm worried that she's going to take backseat yet again, I hope I'm wrong.
