Did Jonathan Hickman “Solve Everything” with Fantastic Four and FF

Travis

I have always enjoyed the idea of the Fantastic Four.  Marvel Comics first team.  These unlikely heroes have often captivated and befuddled me.  For me the Fantastic Four were always in the background of the comics I was collecting.  I remember them with H.e.r.b.i.e. the Robot on Saturday morning cartoons.  The first time I purchased a Fantastic Four issue was the “heroes reborn series” and with that I was hooked.  I fell in love with the idea that this family was the very backbone of the marvel universe.  I understood…

Travis

Avengers Vs. X-men.  Wow, I mean really WOW!!!  I have read comments on blogs where people are disappointed with the story line… I do not understand.  This is one of the finest Crossover stories in Marvel in the last 10 years and it rectifies some serious wrongs done previously in the Marvel universe, which caused me to quit reading comics for a while.  It is extremely hard to please everyone all the time, so I will give the naysayers their moment and opinion. “3…2…1” Okay, times up.  The precision and…
