Fantastic Four #25

This one's a must-read for Marvel fans. Read Full Review

In ‘Fantastic Four'#25 by Dan Slott and R B Silva we get a status-changing issue that wonderfully sets up adventures for future issues. There is loss, there are secrets revealed and there is the return of Doctor Doom too. A family-centric issue that has more than its fair share of dynamic drama and family operatics. A great issue all round and a worthy jump-on pint if you aren't yet reading this titanic title! Excelsior! Read Full Review

This is nearly a perfect issue. If it weren't for the McGuffin I think it may have made the cut for a perfect issue. Read Full Review

Those threads carry over from previous issues, but this issue doesn't make them hard to understand. There's a lot more going on with the family than that, and it's all interwoven between some good comedic moments and off the walls action. Action that is, for the lack of a better term and I'm truly sorry about this, fantastic. R.B. Silva's artwork is so damn clean and fully captures the grand scale of everything happening. On a personal note, I especially love Valeria's cute new haircut. I hope Silva stays on for a while as this series is going in a very intriguing direction. Read Full Review

So what is The Helmsman looking for anyway, and when he finds it, what will he do with it? And if neither Reed nor Dr. Doom has it, who does? And what will The FF do about the Forever Gate? These questions and many others might be answered in the next issue of The Fantastic Four. Read Full Review

For a milestone issue that's extra-sized, this book delivers. It offers an epic story, a new direction for the classic characters, and the possibilities of new sights for a decades-old property. Fantastic Four #25 offers a synthesis of art and ideas in an engrossing narrative of new possibilities. Read Full Review

Dan Slott has been on this book for a few years and from the few issues I've read of his FF run, I've really enjoyed it and wished that I kept up in a better fashion on it. R.B. Silva and Jesus Abertov crushed the visuals. I think for a new reader, Fantastic Four #25 would not be the most friendly issue to pick up but I do think this was a pretty good issue of Fantastic Four and definitely worth the read.

This was really good! I don't know if it was just Silva's art that elevated much of the issue, but this was a perfect Fantastic Four issue in my opinion. It has the themes of family, sci-fi adventure, and team ups that make up everything I could want in an FF issue. And it was all contained in one issue! I really love that, since it doesn't drag out storylines over multiple issues, which makes some stories a slog to read. As I mentioned earlier, the art is amazing. Silva brings the cinematic feel that this story needed. It feels grand and adventurous, the colors pop off the page, making it even more vibrant. I'm looking forward to more Fantastic Four if this is par for the course.

FF is fantastic! Slott was made to write this. You have to bring the family and make it the backbone upon which everything revolves. RB Silva sure brought his A game here and mix it with Aburtov's vibrant colors and it looks very much alive.

Dan Slott said on the Steg-Man and His Amazing Friends podcast a few weeks back that Fantastic Four #25 served as a relaunch in a new direction for the series, they just didn't actually relaunch it. And I can definitely see that in this issue. I am actually excited about where the story is going and I really hope Slott does something cool here.

Sure, it's a promising start. Every arc in this volume has started off promising; few of 'em have ended that way.
