Another month, another FF, another 20 pages of pure delight. Loved every page - especially the Moloidtron, and Darla putting that guy straight on what time it was - except for the letters page, where some yo-yo wrote in to complain about 'the sub-par art'. What a schmuck.

I am pretty sure " Useless! Useless ! All of you pale before our heteronormative cisgendered classification of family!" is probably the greatest thing a Supervillian has ever said anywhere ever.

Holy poo poo this book, this book!!! That was so drat good, it's like getting Christmas every single month.

Your dribbling is a treat,

That was such an amazing issue. I loved how they tied Blastaar's appearance here with that of the recent F4 issues.

On this never ending road to Calvary


I'm amazed at how many different threads Fraction is juggling in FF, I was initially worried that the kids would be put on the back burner and it would focus more on the new makeup of the team but it seems I had no reason for worrying. And Allred's art is just the absolute perfect pairing.

Man, this FF issue was so good. I loved Medusa's eyelashes attacking Scott. And how Scott trusted the kids to fight and they all did great. And Darla standing up to Blastaar.

I hope Fraction pays this off by bringing Cassie back somehow. We all know that they won't kill Doom, and if Cassie was back that would take away Scott's reason for going after him. I'm also amazed that Fraction can work a good story from that piece of poo poo Children's Crusade.

Talking about characters being on the back burner: Have the fish kids ever done anything of note, ever?

What was the Children's crusade tie in / plot point that was reused? God I vaguely remember that garbage.

The fish kids are royalty they don't really "do" stuff. Their just you know fish kids.

Cassie Lang dying.

Yes! Medusa's eyelashes attacking Scott was another one of my favourite parts to the issue.

The key is to have an avatar/CT combo as iconic as mine. Nobody will ever fuck with this.

Now you've got me thinking that Doom is going to bring Cassie back, and use this against Scott somehow.

I'm kinda hoping that Doom ends up understanding how Scott feels, because of what happened to Doom's mother, and offers to help him bring Cassie back or something. At some high cost or something, but I think that would be an interesting turn.

I am totally fine with writers slowly undoing Children's Crusade.

Eh, that'd be kinda predictably lame. I'm hoping Doom brings her back and is all "DOOM CALLS NO HARM NO FOUL!"

It will be interesting to see Dr. Doom in a world without Richards to focus on
