After the last issue of “FF”, we’re fairly certain that Hickman has solidified the book’s place in the Marvel Universe as an excellent companion to the “main” Fantastic Four story contained within — you guessed it — “Fantastic Four.” With Dragotta on art, the books two post-‘Forever’ issues have been quite fantastic. We’re quite highly anticipating whatever comes next.
Speaking of, in the next issue of “FF”, the Future Foundation goes on a field trip to the Negative Zone with Johnny Storm now that he’s home. Of course things don’t go too well.
