I remember I was so sad about it.

      In theory, this would be partially collected in a volume 7. That's assuming they make it that far considering how long it took to put out volume 4. But anything's possible. You might be waiting a while, however.

      Haven't bought a comic in 30 years, read for free for online nostalgia, didn't know it at the time, but this book and his X-men run was unmatched. Incredible art, detail, sensible dialogue, After this 260 FF, Dr. Doom, Galactus, Terrax, was just end of an era, never to return. This book is really nice, great paper, great color. Like watching a old time favorite cartoon from VHS forever to seeing it on 4K.

  • @sazmurph540
    @sazmurph540 Před rokem +2

    I disagree with your statement that Byrne followed Claremont's take on writing female characters. If anything, I think CC followed JB's lead. I don't think the female X-Men took center stage until JB was on the book. And once J0 left X-Men, the stories took a dip in quality. Just look how badly written Sue Storm was in the X-Men annual by CC. But I digress. This is my favorite FF run and thank you for pointing out how JB changed the narrative for Sue and Dr. Doom. Doom hadn't been written well since Kirby left FF. JB restored his regal nature which was sorely missed. And the Galactus story was amazing.
