Love isn't Blind
Jun. 30th, 2011 11:48 amOf all the couples I have seen on Comic Books, comrades, one of my favorites would always be Ben Grimm and Alicia Masters. Today I was reading the latest issue of the Future Foundation and saw this little gem regarding the latest events that have affected this couple. Enjoy.


I wonder how will they solve this interesting sub-plot but there is not a doubt that the Future Foundation is delivering us a promising story.

The art here is strong, with the closeups on Ben's eyes and face, really showing that he's grieving. And Alicia's expressions with equal amounts of understanding and forthrightness.
Goddamnit, Benjy, seems like the writers are giving you another chance with this one. DON'T LET HER PASS YOU BY.
I'mma be in my nerd corner re-reading the last Thing mini-series now.

I do not care, because it means Alicia and Ben can get back together!
Wait a tick...

Sounds like a poke from the FF writing team to the crew heading up Fear Itself.

Go, Ben....be with her....

Thank you.
