@stormtrance1618: I loved the current FF run and I agree with you buddy it looks like they down graded a bit.
Marvel NOW Fantastic Four and FF Creative Teams and Covers Revealed
Not to complain too much. I don't think Fraction understands how to build a team correctly. Not everyone on the team she be 100% physical fighters. Heck no one on that team can even really fly. I suppose ant-man can ride something but really that is not going to make much of a difference.
The Fantastic Four seems ok, just a reboot of the same, but i don't like the new FF. It made sense with it being kids and I liked it that way because it separated it from everything else, now it will just be another superhero book, except with characters I don't care about.
Yay she hulk is back and the rest of the FF line up is promising as long as that isn't Hank Pym. Fantastic four looks cool, it will be hard, if not impossible to make it better than Hickman;s run so I hope Fraction doesn't try, whenever writers try to copy who came before them, it never works out well.
Fraction, I am split down the middle with, it could be really good, like Iron Fist or the first arc of Mighty Thor; or it could be not so good, like Fear Itself or the Mighty Thor tie-ins. I will reserve my judgement until he gets a few issues in though. Still excited about the FF line up, Miss Thing could be cool.
This is the only Marvel Now that I am looking forward to, or understand...
wait wouldn't it make more sense if Ant Man's team was Fantastic Four and Reed's team was Future Foundation since Future is about the children/science and Ant Man's team has the number 4 on their chest.
Also could the girl in thing suit be Sharon Ventura?
This is the biggest collection of Useless or One Note Super Powers since The Legion of Super Heroes first appeared. This is a pathetic response to DC's New52,
Here's a little Q&A with Fraction &Allredhttp://marvel.com/news/story/19200/marvel_now_qa_fantastic_four
Liking the cover to FANTASTIC FOUR #1 a lot but that's about it. I got back into comics thanks to the DC relaunch and I really don't know where to start with Marvel's.
You guys got any ideas for which books I could start with? I'm liking the look of IRON MAN.

Gotta say Fraction taking over FF is a catastrophe, but he had to ruin another book so why not?
I'm not really liking FF. I love the current Future Foundation book, but this just seems...strange. I am a fan of She-hulk, and I do like Ant-man, but "Miss Thing" just looks really stupid to me. This is just a first impression, but I don't think I'll be picking up FF come November.
Fantastic Four on the other hand looks great and I am excited to see what the new team has in store for them.
I don't know what to say. When I saw the FF cover and looked at the gal in the Thing suit, I really cracked up. There appears to be a consensus on this board about her. I have always liked Medusa somewhat, but still say she was most effective when she was evil and a member of the Frightful Four. She-Hulk does nothing for me, but she does seem to be popular with a lot of fans. I will give the new FF title a try, but I suspect it may not make it long term. If nothing else, the woman in Thing's suit will be good for some laughs I suppose. However, we might be surprised and the title could do better than we expect. As for the new Fantastic Four, I am always hopeful when it comes to my favorite comic. Still, I think it is time to go back to blue uniforms.
Ben Grimm had a "Thing Suit" way back in the '70s!
Looks like suck to me.
Would not buy it if it was free.
The Thing suit does not seem to fit this woman very well. Part of her head is not even showing. Let's hope they fix this error or she will be the laughing stock of the Marvel Universe.
Wow that second cover is just strange... I feel like it's a joke. Someone is in a Thing body suit... WHAT?
These were seriously the only two Marvel books I was reading. I know I've seen people say it before and roll my eyes, but sorry Marvel, I'm out. The writer switch is like going from filet mignon to TV dinner salisbury steak.
@Billy Batson Would you like to taste my tears? (I did LOL at your pic though...)
I am going to try to pick up the Fantastic Four. I have always been a fan of the team, but I can never get into the story because there was never a really a great jumping on point. But now with Marvel Now and Matt Fraction writing the series. I am going to give the series another shot
Fantastic Four looks interesting but FF looks to be taking a drastic turn in its focus and I do not like it. We were just getting to know the characters in FF and now the focus is going to be changed. Call me a downer I do not have a good feeling about this title. Also the thing body suit looks stupid.

NOT a Bagley fan at all. And not a Fraction fan (to say the least). I'll refrain from picking these up.
I understand Fraction, but how can you not be a Bagley fan? :C
I can't believe this junk I mean the fantastic four is one thing but the other team is just what the hell. Boring costumes with a cheesy four on their chest so that's number one, two is the poor choice of characters including a human being in a robot thing suit or whatever she is supposed to be just lacks the hell out of creativity. And three the art makes she hulk and the others look even more boring and ugly plus she hulk is one of my favorites and they chose her to be part of this dumb ass team for the new so called marvel?! I been waiting for a new ongoing with her never mind the damn red she hulk. I want her purple costumes back not this costume because its not she hulks personality and her new series back what hell marvel!.
