Reed Richards is an a$$hole

Your best friend becomes a hideous rock monster while you get incredible stretching powers - and then you go and call him THE THING and call yourself MR. FANTASTIC? :dead:
:deadrose::deadrose::deadrose:

Someone needs to up that thread showing multiple instances of Reed physically abusing his wife. Maybe that was on :hamster:. Can't remember lol.

Last time they really used Thing was in Fear Itself.

True FF is kinda garbage now. The UFF ver of them was better. Hell after Hickman is done with SW, they may as well be put up.
616 RR is trash, but Ultimate Reed Richards...dude survived the death of the multiverse.

He's GOTTA go up against 616 Doom in Secret Wars :ohhh:

Of course 616 Reed is trash compared to Ultimate Reed... Hell I didn't even start liking Ult Reed until that Ult Doom Trilogy.

Ultimate Reed Richards... THE MAKER:blessed:

You don't know how pissed I was when Hickman was moved off of Ultimate Avengers... But his making up for it. Can't wait for him to wreck shyt. :banderas:

i actually don't have a problem with the way the new movie looks but watching that trailer you do wonder if this is really the franchise most worthy of a "gritty reboot".

the F4 just naturally lends itself more to that over the top, campy approach imo. i'm not sure if we really need a "serious" movie about invisible woman and stretchy man.

Can't co-sign killing them off. They are definitely old school but the quintessential Stan Lee creation, IMO. They are the very embodiment of Marvel in the 1960s, for all the good and bad that stands for. That's why their powers and origin is hokey.

They were one of the first comic books I remember reading as a kid. My elementary school had a couple of Marvel collections in the library and I remember checking out the one FF collection they had all the time.

There's really not much that can be done with them though. I'm tired of hearing about all of the FF relaunches. They need to go away for awhile. They don't need an ongoing and can be background players and make cameos in big events or bring in a new team and let the original FF people spin off into different groups for a few years.
