When I was a little lad, reading Mighty World of Marvel in the 1970s, I thought Roy Thomas must be the coolest man alive, Stan Lee’s hep & groovy young assistant & since then, it’s Thomas’s work that has made him one of my fave comics writers, & subsequently, one of my favourite editors.

I buy a lot of things just to review, including lots of first issues. It’s a while since I’ve enjoyed any of them as much as this.

So here it is, the final ever issue of the Fantastic Four. Johnny Storm’s dead, Spider-Man’s waiting in the wings to become the new fourth member, there are new costumes, a new direction, it’s the end of an era, yaddah, yaddah, yaddah.

The most annoying thing about this is that it is not genuinely the start of a four-part mini-series. Well, it is, but it isn’t the start of a story: it’s a continuation of Ultimate Mystery.
