Fantastic Four: Solve Everything TPB
Hollywood once again botched their ironically fourth attempt to kickstart a film-franchise with Marvel’s First Family ridiculously marketed as Fant4stic. However Josh Trank (Chronicle) contributed toward this catastrophe since I’ve usually point-the-finger at Fix (Fox).
I purchased volume one of Secret Wars Writer, Jonathan Hickman’s run drawn by Dale Eaglesham (Green Lantern) in-trade being fully aware before the oncoming trainwreck.
Reed Richards alias Mr. Fantastic is offered membership on a council with versions of himself from alternate realites including some wielding the all-powerful Infinity Gauntlet onto focusing on the-bigger-picture rather then confide facing his own world’s problems. Reed seeks his counterparts’ wisdom while struggling with his character-tendency through getting heldup with lab-work which burdens Susan “Storm” Richards aka Invisible Woman more spent time with their children Franklin (immensely powerful) and an enigmatic daughter named Valeria. World-45 Reed resorts using lobotomization collaring Doctor Doom armies derived from his own DNA justifiying-his-actions as “necessary evil”.
Celestials (godlike race) come which coincidentally watched Marvel Knights’ motion comics about 76′ cosmic group called Eternals on-paper take via Neil Geiman (Sandman) in-addition John Romita Jr. (Amazing Spider-Man) on DVD. They kill-off aforementioned interdimensional assembly members one-by-one like exploding Talosian Reed’s head after probing Universe 4280 Richards’ mind who’s powerless but still smart to build himself high-tech arsenal. 4280-Reed reveals price they’ve paid was personal sacrifice aftermath. Earth-8901 Richards serves-as main mentor motivating Reed indicating degree to being better based-on childhood flashbacks extending-to his father (Nathaniel).
Subplot envolving Johnny “Spencer” Storm/Human Torch along with Ben Grimm/Thing on-vacation at Nu-World (a cloned Earth) while nephews stowaway then go-to-school minute. There’s power-struggle between Lightwave (Earth-807128) hails originally-from surrogate Zenn-La (Silver Surfer’s planet) him plus Ultron. Rocky Grimm calling Flame Brain Worst Travel-Agent ever sums-up their butting relationship. Hulk Jr. (Banner’s son from Earth-807128) fellow prisoner stays behind during break-out settle a score with aforesaid former Galactus herald. Psionics (Lightwave’s daughter), Johnny’s crazy ex during short-fight raves Val plays crucial role to send refugees back to Terra. Spider-Man (Peter Parker) briefly shows up by birthday request. Book ends on cliffhanger with future-Franklin comes to tell his sister alone about an apocalyptic war only Victor Von Doom can prevent.
Only issue is Richards saying “cool” which is more up Johnny’s alley cause Reed wouldn’t use phrases like that. Being an excentric he’d reply-with “fascinating” or “interesting” while serving-as one-of-the-top intellectuals within the MU (Marvel Universe). Decent scifi elements team deals with on-regular basis. Hickman captures who these characters are supposed to be cause Fix has no idea.

Elektra in Daredevil
With Season Two filming underway, Marvel announced Elodie Yung (Girl with The Dragon Tattoo) as The Greek Girl mentioned in “Nelson v. Murdock” (episode ten) co-starring with Jon Bernthal’s Punisher including a teaser poster. Executive Producer, Jeph Loeb said this:
After a worldwide search, we found in Elodie the perfect actress to embody both Elektra’s impressive and deadly physicality, as well as her psychological complexity.
Paired with Charlie as Matt Murdock, the two will bring one of the most beloved and tumultuous comic book relationships to life with all the accompanying sparks and spectacular action sequences the show is known for.
More on Marvel.com
Elodie definitely looks more like Natchios then Jennifer Garner (Affleck’s now ex-wife) ever did despite her being French. She certainly can do martial arts in her fight scenes since she’s a black belt in Karate. Postively conveys “I will kill you without a second thought” stare well from District 13: Ultimatum.
The Hand’s star-pupil is probably sent to take out Hornhead since Nobu failed which causes conflict for her unlike Frank Castle, who dukes it out with Murdock for getting in his way from carrying out his fatal methods. More then likely Bullseye shows up to give her his magic trick towards the end.
Uncertain about Yung’s acting ability specifically during college flashbacks when Elektra dated Matt to their breakup after her father’s murder which pulges her into a world-of-darkness like source material. This also means an infamous love triangle since Murdock appeared to start-up a relationship with Karen.

Punisher in Daredevil: Season 2
Marvel has announced an antagonist from The Man Without Fear’s perspective will come to their hit-series’ second year on Netflix, Frank Castle to be played by Jon Bernthal of Walking Dead fame.
Jon Bernthal brings an unmatched intensity to every role he takes on, with a potent blend of power, motivation and vulnerability that will connect with audiences. Castle’s appearance will bring dramatic changes to the world of Matt Murdock and nothing will be the same.
More on Marvel.com
This pretty much confirms a spin-off show. Look-wise, Jon definitely resembles Castle drawn by John Romita Jr. which has Italian lineage (as do I) to his rational. Seems okay acting-wise from what l’ve seen. That short film four years ago, Dirty Laundry showed Thomas Jane (Deep Blue Sea) was a good choice.
I’ll be happy as long Bernthal doesn’t steal Charlie Cox’s spotlight. It’s more then likely he’s going to be a Gulf War vet rather Vietiam since he’s seasoned similar-to Iron Man’s origin set in Iraq. Frank represents what Matt could’ve become had he killed Wilson Fisk (Vincent D’Onofrio) when he had the chance. He’d probably commend Karen (Deborah Ann Woll) killing Wesley (Toby Leonard Moore) when Nelson & Murdock find out cause she’s obviously not going to be able to hide it forever. Murdock’s idealogy has to prevail over Castle’s psychotic world-view above-all-else. Prodcucers could take more Frank Miller cues with his “Child’s Play” storyline with some elements to his first appearence in Amazing Spider-Man where he’s hired to take out.
Billy Russo (pre-Jigsaw) might be first in-line to some other mobsters vying-for-control of Hell’s Kitchen now that Kingpin and his syndicate are behind-bars. There still the question about The Hand along with Elektra since Nobu (Peter Shinkoda) failed his operation by-means-of Black Sky.
