Hickman’s epic and seminal run on “Fantastic Four” has just come to an end, and the tears haven’t fully dried yet. However, with what we’ve heard about Fraction and Bagley’s upcoming run, it looks to be a pretty class-act follow-up. Described somewhat as a Pixar film (or, as Fraction put it, taking back the Incredibles), it features the Fantastic Family traveling through time and exploring history together, with all related hijinks occurring appropriately. Sounds like a good plan to us.
So with that in mind, take your first look at Fraction and Bagley’s new “Fantastic Four” run right here:
Is it too much if we say this looks pretty… fantastic?
