FF #16

[sherkahn]

Calvin and Hobbes.
Burt and Ernie.
Butch and Sundance.
Han and Cheweii.
Woody and Buzz.

Time to add one more pair of two the "great companions" list, as the Fantastic Four and FF clean up the big mess put together after these past few years of Hickman's amazing run (so far).

***SPOILERS***

edit: I thought I had uploaded the correct pics. Fixed.



The Franklin from the future and his best friend have a chat.




Union????


It is touching to know that when the end comes, the Big G will not face it alone.
For all of his power and cosmic scale, moments like this make me love Galactus all that much more.

And just in case you thought all of the threats to the Fantastic Four have ended...




Doom survives his battle with the Mad Celestials, and is rewarded for his sacrifice.


It gets better... besides 2 Infinity Gauntlets, he finds the surviving Dr. Doom's from the other universes that the Council of Reeds came from.

Behold, the Legion of D-, I mean the Parliament of DOOM.

*that's my fan-fic picture.

Wait, Bill and Kelda reuniting is a threat to the Fantastic Four?

[tsunamiwombat]

Isn't the Infinity Gauntlet godlike power?
...And now Doom has 2?

[xammax]

DDDDDDDDDOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!

Its sad Hickman won't be the one to follow this epicness up.

[biod]

One thing might save us. If DOOM undoes the lombotomies, DOOM does not share power.

Re: Last image - Ohhhhhhhh WHAT A RUSH!!!

Anyway, at the top, it says "the Fantastic Four and FF"? Aren't those the same thing?

[arilou_skiff]

I'm fairly certain that guy to the right isn't Doom at all: It's President Stark from that Exiles arc with the Weapon X team. (one of the better ones, IMNSHO)

[md84]

Oh yeah, surely this won't backfire on Doom at all. Not like all the other times he's acquired cosmic/supernatural power.

He's not as bad as The Hood when it comes to this sort of thing, but Doom really should stick to his own inventions. Way more reliable.

"It is touching to know that when the end comes, the Big G will not face it alone."

Of course he won't face it alone - Mr Immortal will still be around.

[greenmask]

Awww, they're pals. I like Franklin's beard.

“Well, you’ll have to wait a bit longer, sexy… I mean, we can’t just unite like this out of the blue, can we now? First we should, you know, go to the movies, then a dinner…”

[thatnickguy]

Psh. We've seen a team-up with all the Dooms before. It didn't work out very well.

heh, i guess if one dated Phoenix then I guess Galactus is the next best things :D

[leoboiko]

“Stark. Out.” “Who? Me” “Don’t play dumb! Out! You are not invited to the secret club of DOOM!” “No no you must be confusing me with someone, I’m Dr Doom from… the… Iron Dimension?—” “OUT!”

You can mask the Image mentality, but in the end it's still Image. If one set of Infinity Gems already grants the wearer omnipotent power, what will two sets grant? What's omnipotence multiplied by two? Answer: omnipotence. I know this is supposed to sound awesome, but it's not, and it's not even logical.

Oh, this is Image all over again. Remember what's better than super-powers? Guns! And what's better than guns? Bigger guns! Hickman can mask it any way he wants, but he's just giving us bigger guns. Sad, really sad...

... incidentally, I thought The Manhattan Projects was a piece of garbage.

[baihu]

Well about Galactus and Franklin. In the Earth X series, Franklin ended up (I'm not sure if they ever really detailed the whole progress of how it happened) being 'new' Galactus, through some sort of self-hypnosis - he believed himself to be Galactus, and thus he was. It might have been a gambit by Reed so that they had somebody strong enough to fight the Celestials, though why normal reality-bending Franklin wouldn't work is beyond me.

Though to note, Franklin was distraught over what happened to Sue and after basically cursing Namor to burn forever, he disappeared for a while. Then it's a gap between then and him reappearing as Galactus.

[pyrrhocorax]

Franklin and Galactus are cute :D
