The premise of Robert Kirkman’s Fantastic Four: Foes is that we, the reader, get to see villains’ capers from the eyes of the villains before they get thwarted by the Fantastic Four. That could be kind of cool, actually. If it were true. Which it isn’t.
I have no idea why they decided to lie about this on the jacket and in the Amazon book description, but they did. Despite what all the descriptions say, though, this is a straightforward — and not very well done — Fantastic Four storyline. If you’re a big fan of the FF, you’ll probably think this is okay. If not, it offers nothing at all special. (And yet, I still read through it non-stop. There is something about the graphic novel medium that just resonates with me...)
