Fantastic Four #47

As a tie-in to A.X.E. Judgment Day, Fantastic Four #47 is hardly essential. The circumstances provide the impetus for the Midas Foundations actions but they ultimately dont matter to the story that unfoldswhich could have been told at any other time. But that isnt important in the slightest. Its a fun issue. Its paced spectacularly. The visuals capture the Die Hard mood completely. And once the action gets going we only care about how much ass Sue can kick. Read Full Review

Fantastic Four #47 is a great ride. Pepose is Marvels secret weapon right now, and this book proves it. He sets everything up brilliantly. Cabal and Aburtov kill it on the art, giving readers the visuals this story deserves. This one is a cant miss. Read Full Review

Fantastic Four #47 finds the Invisible Woman locked in the Baxter Building with a cabal of hi-tech thieves as Judgment Day approaches.This is the perfect example of a great tie-in issue, and I wouldn't mind seeing this creative team on more stories, whether they're Fantastic Four related or not.

Fantastic Four #47 will satiate fans of the badass that is Invisible Woman, who doesn't always get to show that side of herself off. It may take a little extra time to get things going, but it's going to be a true spectacle to see how this story plays out next issue. Read Full Review

'Fantastic Four' #47 is incredibly fun and a little nostalgic with the team as the very best version of themselves. A treat for all fans. Read Full Review

Fantastic Four #47 is a tie-in to the larger A.X.E.: Judgment Day event, but it's far more of a standalone story than anything else. It delivers exactly what it says in the synopsis: Die Hard with the Fantastic Four. The Invisible Woman is the main star here and the art from Juann Cabal with Jesus Aburtov's colors make the comic's action look good. Read Full Review

There's nothing especially exciting about this issue, but Reed Richard's inner-monologue throughout the whole thing makes it worth the read. Read Full Review

Slott's series didn't deserve any of my attention, but when I saw David Pepose's name on this book, I jumped at the opportunity to give this a read. Safe to say, Pepose should've been on Fantastic Four instead of Slott, for double the number of issues, at that.

I wasn't sure about another interim writer jumping in, but Pepose did a good job. Sue rarely gets the spotlight and I feel that he has a good handle on her. The tie-in is loose, but that was better for me since I'm not liking AXE at all. Reed is trying to figure out how to handle the celestial and locks himself in the think tank. His muse is Sue and he thinks of her and the rest of the FF in an attempt to discover the celestial's motivations. Meanwhile, Midas infiltrates the Baxter building on the eve of Earth's destruction. The story had a few holes, which I chose to overlook. Like how did weapons get through security as well as the automatons? Not just one weapon, but a dozen. Background check on the "New Accountant"? I was even thinking, "No infrared goggles going up against Sue?" But he took care of that and I loved how she blocked the weapon from firing and shield herself. The scene in the elevator was good. But "Eduardo" for the janitor? Really? I don't like how the villain looks like a dominatrix, but I like the narrative and the action. Refreshing after the last issue. more

A really good FF story with Sue Storm being the leading actor as she deserves to be. Juan Cabal with his good art as usual but his bar is so high that I'm missing his crazy panel designs. I'm still waiting for Waid to come back and give me the Sue Storm: Agent of Shield ongoing we asked for.

You're gonna do "Die Hard in the Baxter Building?" Okay, I'm in -- if only to see how on-the-nose you play it. You're casting Oubliette Midas as Hans Gruber? Now you have my attention. I *want* to like this, but in my opinion, it's not quite ready for prime time. The art is beautiful and Oubliette sounds great. But it's off to a terribly slow start and Reed Richards *will not shut up*. The "Divergent Narration" trick is a lot harder than it looks, and this is a good example of how not to do it. I'll call this a good comic on balance, though -- partly because I suspect the next issue will be even better.

Eh, it was fine. I wish these tie-ins were better constructed.
