The Future Of The Fantastic Four At Marvel (Spoilers)
In Fantastic Four #18 published today, we see Franklin Richards finding a way to manage his own omnipotence and omniscience.
Article Summary
- Franklin Richards controls his powers in Fantastic Four #18.
- The Storm Siblings create planet-killing lasers on Earth.
- X-Men and Spider-Man explore new timelines and threats.
- Madame Web's localized visions offer a fresh perspective.
Lots of folk are looking into the future right now. Destiny, over in X-Men Forever has been doing this since, well, forever.
And keeping seperate books while she is at it.
While Madame Web (what movie?) is also doing the same in a more specific and localised fashion…
While over in Fantastic Four #18 published today, we see Franklin Richards finding a way to manage his own omnipotence and omniscience.
By just doing it once a year, lookimng forward, and fixing anything that no one can see coming. And without the possibilirty that he will send all his friends and family to the cornfield.
Unless of course it gets changed back when he is offline again. And we get a new use of the Fantastic Four's powers in a fastball special circuit fashion.
The Storm Siblings, creating planet killing lasers. The Fantasticn Four have turned the Earth into a Death Star.
You can see why SHIELD is contiunuing to keep an eye on them all. Or maybe weaponise them in the future? Fantastic Four continues to be Marvel's best ongoing superhero comic book, and these are just a few reasons why. I do hope it has a long future courtesy of Ryan North and friends…
