I would put this in my top 3 reads of all time reads! Absolutely fantastic.Īt this point I feel like I use that phrase too much but then again this one is just literally living to it, its one of those runs that will make you love comics but also the FF in particular and Hickman gives such an epic ending to his run! Hickman is king here, god knows how he managed to fit so much character development in between a family, friends and enemies and still pull off one of the best reads ever! Just wow. Oh and the humour, when a particular person (comes from negative zone) drops a massive turd in Spiderman’s toilet, kudos for that! The bit that made me well up was when The Thing was at his lowest, he was hurting emotionally really badly, but he had no way to release his anger, so what does he do!? He calls two of his mates for a ruck, I couldn't believe my eyes at first, absolutely epic and heart wrenching. I mean there is one fight in space between 4 gods (I won't say who) and it's just a full on geek fest, loved it. For Marvel geeks like myself it's so much fun to Reed this (see what I did there?), because there are so many characters in this book that you wanted to see in a comic and they're all in there (I’m including volume 1 in this). This book has feeling, intelligence, a fantastic story and some unbelievably good characters and action scenes. With regards to the story, there are parts which made me well up a bit, now for me that means I’m completely lost in the book so it means my complete imagination is all encompassed into their world and the storyline, which is rare for me when reading a story.

I've never read an F4 story before, I’ve only ever seen the old 90's cartoons which I enjoyed, but this book and the whole Hickman run is incredible. It's the same colour as the F4 classic blue with a matt finish.beautiful to hold and look at.

I collect omnibuses and most of the marvel ones are black with minimal or no design, colour change, but this is lovely. To start with the book itself beneath the dust cover is just as beautiful as Volume1.
