FF 22 - A Son With Two Fathers

[terrykun]

In the last issue of Fantastic Four, Reed and family seized the Wizard from A.I.M.'s new nation-state, and brought him into custody. Bentley 23, the clone of the Wizard, apparently wanted to see him. He approached him with a box containing his helmet, stating that the children of the Foundation thought it best for him to have a personal identifier. He's quite mad, you see.

The Wizard told Bentley to put it on himself.







Well done, Mister Hickman. Well done. (:

Wow. I thought Wizard was just pathologically obsessed with puzzles and scheming, like the Riddler. Didn't realize megalomania and just general mania was also his schtick. (I guess it is for most of Marvel's Evil Geniuses.)

He was formerly just in it for fame, money, and recognition (and at times just money). Then he went crazy, near the very beginning of Hickman's run.

Somehow he was able to pause being crazy to work with the Intelligencia for Fall of/World War Hulks and the follow-up issues of She-Hulk, but that's apparently another matter. *shrug*
