REVIEW: I just have to say that this was such a great surprise after having read the first volume of the Marvel NOW! Iron Man because that was hugely disappointing. This however, was pretty awesome. I really loved the storyline that's in this volume with the Fantastic Four leaving regular Earth into a different time and space, so they have to pick replacements for themselves even though they will only be gone four minutes (convenient huh?). Though, to the Fantastic they will be gone a year, and the reason for leaving is very important to the future of the Four. This just had a really great story, and typically when Marvel goes into space I'm not much of a fan but the writer does a great job of making the story interesting despite the Fantastic Four actually leaving. The artwork is great, and I have to say this book had a really great sense of humor. I actually chuckled out loud a few times, especially with The Thing. Oh, and I have to say that John Storm that comes back through the portal is just straight-up creepy looking, but awesome at the same time. Where's that guy in some of the books? That could be a serious side-plot with a dark Storm like that, with how creepy he looks it really drew me in. So now, we're one for two on Marvel NOW! titles. I hope the others that I get the chance to read are much more like this one.
