This book still gushes with creativity and enthusiasm and that makes it a lot of fun to read and experience. Its by no means a perfect book, but the good outweighs the bad enough to make it an easy recommendation, especially if youre looking for something a little more lighthearted, but not strictly for children, on the shelf. I really do admire how much Fraction and Bagley have created in the already expansive Marvel Universe and timeline, how much uniqueness this book brings to the shelf, and that enthusiasm counts for an awful lot.

There are great books and there are solid books. While the former may get more attention, the latter are an underappreciated wonder in the world of comics. Fantastic Four #11 is a seriously solid book. Fraction and Sebela give us a thought-out, clever version of the Four that plays to the unique strengths that the team's 'adventurers of science' pedigree allows them. Mark Bagley's art and the impressive layouts of the book make it a visual treat. But, despite the seemingly well-oiled machine that this team has put together, it stutters from time to time. Nevertheless fans of the franchise should find plenty to like. Read Full Review

One can't judge the future of Fantastic Four based on the current creative arrangement, but so far the prospects for a series only plotted by Fraction aren't looking bright. Read Full Review

I want to like "Fantastic Four" much more than I do, with "Fantastic Four" #11 being no exception to that rule. Maybe when Karl Kesel comes on board to help finish out Fraction's run, things will level out a bit. And with the tie-in to "FF" in the form of the future Johnny Storm appearing, it definitely comes across that everything is finally coming to a head. But still, this should be better than what's actually presented, and that's too bad. Read Full Review
