One of Reed Richards' greatest discoveries is the extradimensional Negative Zone that exists parallel to our own universe. But now, an experiment that Reed began many years ago has come back to roost-and the Fantastic Four will once more have to venture into this hostile expanse in order to put things right!
Plus! Ryan North and Steve Uy bring you the first adventure of those bizarre new heroes in the Baxter Building, the Fantastix!

Mike Carey crafts a Fantastic Four tale that feels entirely new and also so classically ingrained in the characters that you'll wonder when it was first published. Read Full Review
I enjoyed both stories in Fantastic Four: Negative Zone. They were both fun and interesting in their own rights. Although, I would say that it might need a different title, maybe. I was a little confused on whether it fell into the ongoing Fantastic Four story or if it dealt with the Annihilation Scourge event that just started. It does not deal with either one of those, which is great. I love one-shot stories and these are two good ones. But, I just think maybe it could have used a different title or something to avoid confusion. Other than that, great Fantastic Four story that is super easy for anybody to jump into and enjoy.

"Fantastic Four: Negative Zone" #1 is the trail mix of comics: mostly bland but with a sweet part that you'll want to skip directly to. Read Full Review
this was great.
First story was great. Fantastic Four in good old-fashioned story with moral dilemma and scientific questions. Second one was meh. I dont like this team and story was really weak.
The A strip is a simple sci-fi premise executed well. I like Mike Carey's voices for the team; they're distinct from the contemporary FF title but still sound very in-character. The B strip is a cute little thing, but wordy. It's not lighting a fire in me to see more Fantastix stories.
These were both okay stories. The first one felt like a by-the-numbers FF issue, while the second just felt very unnecessary. Neither were bad, though. Just not great.
This was better than I dreaded, but still not super special.
