Marvel Comics is Bringing Back FANTASTIC FOUR!

marvel-comics-is-bringing-back-the-fantastic-four2

In 2015 Marvel Comics brought an end to Fantastic Four, which was one of its longest continuous comic series ever. It was a big surprise, but it happened around the time when Fox was going to release that terrible Fantastic Four film. I heard rumors that the reason Marvel canceled the comic series was to stick it to Fox because they were going through some tense times. But regardless of what the reason was, Marvel brought it to an end.

Marvel Comics has now revealed that they are officially bringing Fantastic Four back in a new ongoing series! I guess now that Disney is buying Fox, they feel it’s okay to bring Marvel’s first family back together. If we ever do see a new Fantastic Four movie, it’s going to come from Marvel Studios next time. It only makes sense that they’d want a Fantastic Four comic to help in their marketing efforts.

The comic will be written by Dan Slott, with art by Sara Pichelli. The new Fantastic Four book will bring Reed and Sue back to Earth, reuniting the team for the first time since Secret Wars. Fantastic Four #1 launches this August.

You can watch the full announcement from Marvel’s editor-in-chief C.B. Cebulski below:

Fox Developing Silver Surfer Movie, Plus X-Men Movie Updates

With the potential merger of Disney and 20th Century Fox lingering in the background, many fans have wondered what the studio will be doing with their Marvel properties before their potential return to the House of Ideas. The Hollywood Reporter has several revelations in a new report that indicates that not only is the studio not slowing down on their Marvel properties, but they’re developing more projects now than they ever have in the past.

First up, to pair it up with Noah Hawley’s (Fargo, Legion) Doctor Doom movie, the outlet reports that Fox is developing a Silver Surfer stand-alone movie which is being written by none other than Eisner award-winning writer Brian K. Vaughan. Little else is known about the project at this point. The Silver Surfer previously made his big screen debut in the Fantastic Four sequel released in 2007.

Ever since Disney bought Fox and we learned that Marvel would be getting the rights to the X-Men and The Fantastic Four back, fans have been wondering, talking about, and speculating what Marvel plans on doing with these characters and when they will actually start to play with them.

During a recent interview with Vulture, Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige shed some light on where he stands on all of this at the moment. After claiming that he found out about the big deal in the press like the rest of us saying, “These are big deals” and they are above his pay grade, he explained:

“The truth of the matter as I understand it is the deal has to be figured out. There’s been no communication. We’re not thinking about it. We’re focusing on everything we’ve already announced. If and when the deal actually happens, we’ll start to think more about it. Until then, we have a lot to do.”

New Kid Friendly FANTASTIC FOUR Movie Possibly in the Works at Fox

Dammit, Fox. Just stop it. You have some of the coolest Marvel villains all under the Fantastic Four rights and instead of just admitting defeat and letting those rights roll over, you gotta pull this shit.

So, Bleeding Cool is reporting that Fox has started working on another Fantastic Four movie with the help of Seth Grahame-Smith. Grahame-Smith is an author who created the Pride and Prejudice and Zombies book by mixing the original literature with his own zombified twist. He also was involved in helping with the last Fantastic Four movie script. And by help, I mean, trying to fix what was left of the train wreck of a script that existed.

“Fantastic Four,” “Avengers” Artist Paul Ryan Passes Away

upload 1

Paul Ryan, a comic book artist for lengthy runs on several Marvel Comics titles, passed away Sunday. He was 66.

“It is with sad news I report the passing of my cousin Paul,” wrote his cousin Chad Callanan on Facebook. “Chances are you were touched by him in your lifetime as he was the cartoonist for some of the most well known and beloved characters in the world. From Spider-Man, Thor, Iron Man, The Phantom to the Fantastic Four, most of which made it to the big screen and Hollywood. He was a true giant and artist, who achieved more success in his short life than any one of us would ever know in ten lifetimes. He was somebody who showed me how to dream big, but he was also my friend and that was good enough.” Continue reading

FOX is Reportedly Not Happy with Josh Trank’s FANTASTIC FOUR Reboot

 Uh, oh! It sounds like 20th Century Fox isn’t very happy with what Josh Trank has done with his Fantastic Four reboot. The news comes from Bleeding Cool, who says that some people within the studio are calling the film “Chronicle 2 rather than Fantastic 4,? and it’s not what the studio wanted to see. On top of that, one of the senior executives at the studio told the site that the movie was “a mess.”

Well, that’s not good. Of course, many of you seemed to figure that this is where Fantastic Four was headed, so I’m sure some of you aren’t surprised by this news.. X-Men: First Class director Matthew Vaughn recently said that he saw the movie, and that it was simply “good.” It didn’t seem like he was enthusiastic about it though.

The report goes on to say that the studio is demanding reshoots, and that they are freeing up millions of dollars to make that happen. They also say that the sets are already being rebuilt in Louisiana.

If this is all to be believed, then Fantastic Four could end up being a terrible film. If the movie turns out to be as bad as it sounds, the franchise might die altogether. That is, until Marvel Studios gets their hands back on the property. I think they are the only studio that fans will put their trust in at this point with these characters.

This didnt sound good from the start of it!  from the actors to the extreme secerts and  no news about the  movie!  i am not surprised  but me  being a marvel  fan!  i will see it anyway!  lol  what are your thoughts after reading this article?
