David Gabriel of Marvel Comics announced X-Men/Fantastic Four by Chip Zdarsky and Terry Dodson at MCM London last month. But no one it seems other than Bleeding Cool noticed. Or they pretended not to notice. Today as part of their Pull List video, it went official, launching in February and spinning directly out of the first issue of House Of X. When Cyclops made a promise that Krakoa would be there for Reed and Sue's mutant son, Franklin.
Ans in February, they follow up on it, with X-Men/Fantastic Four by Chip Zdarsky and Terry Dodson. With the promise that it is time for Franklin Richards to come home to Krakoa. Launching from Marvel in February, here's a look at a few of the covers…
