The final chapter for the Council of Reeds! Guest-starring the Power Pack!
Now that both this and the Fantastic Four series are synchronized, "on the same page", even, it will be interesting to see how each book is managed from a content point of view. People are going to want different perspectives in each book, if they are going to continue to dole out three dollars per issue. They have to either diverge the stories again, or produce content for a story that is worth a six dollar per month investment. So far, I believe the creative team has what it takes to get the job done and keep readers happy. I am excited for FF #16 and Fantastic Four #604! Read Full Review
The story is building to a big finish (which you'd expect, since it includes a group of Celestials), and I'm anxious to see where it all goes next. Read Full Review
We won't know until Fantastic Four #604. But we do know that Franklin Richards is a really good-hearted kid, and his character has been developed enough to know that we really care about what happens to this little guy. That, in itself, is an accomplishment, considering he was once completely untouchable. Read Full Review
The intertwining story between this and Fantastic Four has be a seriously fun, worthy of a few re-reads, if for nothing more than to fully grab the story. With both books ending on the same splash page reveal the significance could be seen from two different perspectives and puts both at the same moment for coming issues. FF #15 continues the trend of character building while keeping with the action and pacing moving forward and that is why I'm giving it 4 out of 5 stars. Read Full Review
If you've been enjoying Jonathan Hickman's overarching Fantastic Four saga, then FF #15 should fit snuggly into place for you. But it's worth noting that this issue doesn't really feel accessible unless you're knee deep in all of Hickman's Fantastic Four material. Read Full Review
Hopefully once this current story ends, we'll get the rest of the cast back in a more substantial role. Having all the kids around is the big strength of "FF" and the longer they're gone, the less entertaining "FF" might become. "Fantastic Four" bonus scenes are nice, but "FF" needs to get its own voice again. Read Full Review
This, along with Fantastic Four, may be the best-written book in Marvels stable right now. Until the art problem is fixed, though, it cant be one of the best titles overall. Read Full Review
You probably can get by without picking up this issue, but if you're a Hickman FF devotee, you probably will anyway. Read Full Review
Jonathan Hickman is a writer who can tell powerful stories that bring human characters and human problems alongside superpowers so huge they might as well be divine. Unfortunately, all the various subplots and sprawling arcs have made his Fantastic Four run too complicated to navigate in a single book. And that's to this story's detriment " there are things to enjoy about FF and its sister title, but until they become one cohesive narrative, they'll always be less than the sum of their parts.

Well this issue didn't advance the story at all, but Nick Dragotta's art is a major step up from the last few issues.
