Marvel Two-In-One #6

Before we take our leave of Marvel 2-in-One until the Annual, it bears mentioning how good it is to have Jim Cheung back as penciler. Not that Valerio Schiti wasn't doing a good job, and not that Schiti wasn't developing well as the artist of this mag, but this great saga started with Cheung's art and it's good to have him on board for the wrap-up.

MARVEL TWO-IN-ONE #6 by Chip Zdarsky and Jim Cheung is a fantastic ending to the book's first arc. It's got exciting action and on-point characterization. It's clear Zdarsky truly loves these characters. Cheung's art makes this a legendary issue. Don't miss it. Read Full Review

Pick this issue up but make sure to read the arc first. With Thanos done, I think this may be top dog in my pull list.  Read Full Review

A strong finish with some big cosmic ideas afoot. Read Full Review

Marvel Two-in-One has been able to shatter my cynicism and fly beyond my expectations of the title. This may be the best issue of the series yet, and I was thinking that about the last installment too. This is just a great read, and I hope its able to maintain this level of quality going forward, even as the Fantastic Four finally returns. Marvel Two-in-One #6 comes highly recommended. Give it a read. Read Full Review

This series has been great so far for Fantastic 4 fans waiting on their next fix. It's been great seeing the crew back together even if half of them aren't their original selves. We also get to see other characters who they routinely see like Silver Surfer and others. I recommend this series for any and everyone. Long time fans and new ones considering jumping in now.

I may have small hang-ups here and there about this series but all in all it is consistently fun and engaging. Chip Zdarsky continues to balance the action/adventure, mystery, and comedy well, keeping the reader interested and on the edge of their seat. The art is wonderful as well; changeup in artists can be bad but when they are all talented it is all good! Read Full Review

This story did a great job of capturing that science fiction family feel of the Fantastic Four. It was a thrill to read with plenty of fun and surprises. It has some of the strongest art you will find in the pages of Marvel. I would definitely recommend it. This is especially so if you are missing the Fantastic family. Read Full Review

While it's not quite over, this series has delivered a truly excellent prelude to the return of the Fantastic Four, capturing the magic of Marvel's first superhero series with only half of the team intact. Read Full Review

Welcome to the Oblivion Bar where the first round is on me and the pretzels are free! Be warned: like the pickled eggs at the bar, this issue is going to get SPOILED rotten. So, it feels like it’s been awhile but in case you forget, Ben and Johnny went across the multiverse looking for Reed, Susan, and the kids. Now, Ben “thinks” they’re dead but didn’t have the heart to tell Johnny that. So, with the help of Rachna, there new “brain”, they traveled to a universe where Doom took over as Galactus and devoured the universe (except for Earth) in order to find their Reed and Suzie. In this universe, Reed is a depressed mess, Ben Grimm was dead, Johnny was in a hospital bed for some reason, and Susan doesn’t even talk to Reed anymore. When last issue ended, Doom-Galactus was waiting over Earth to feed on it. This issue picks up with our Earth Doom (who hitched a ride with Ben, Johnny, and Rachna) working with this universes Reed on a plan to stop Doom-Galactus. It’s a pretty creative plan. Susan gets the entire fleet of Earth Space crafts to attack Doom-Galactus while our Ben, Johnny, and Doom sneak up behind Doom-Galactus (DG). There Reed shoots our Ben with Pym particles making him the size of DG and there Susan puts her force shield around him. Ben clobbers him good for a bit to keep him busy while our Doom and Johnny take out the mechanical Doom Surfers. There Johnny Storm wakes up and flies up to space to fight Doom-Galactus but what we later find out is that this Johnny Storm took some of the power from Silver Surfer, which was the Power Cosmic. So, his flame is just as powerful as the sun and he helps the crew by firing on DG after Ben shrinks down from the pym particles. This is also why their Johnny was in a hospital. I “think” they put him in a comma so his powers wouldn’t go off and hurt anyone. Needless to say, he lets loose on DG while our Doom and Johnny go into the space ship that Emma Frost is on. The plan was to keep Doom-Galactus busy long enough and to have Cosmic Johnny feed him so his hunger would be stopped for a bit. This would buy them enough time for Emma to shoot Doom-Galactus with an energy blast and swap minds with DG putting her mind in his and vice versa. But our Doom kind of had other plans. I “think” he was going to swap his brain with Doom-Galactus and take that power for himself. But our Johnny talks some sense into him and Emma is the one to swap minds. But before she swapped minds with DG, Reed planted a “Trojan Horse” into her mind to do the opposite of killing worlds. She will take the power Doom-Galactus creates and literally explode it out all across the universe creating planets and life. Our Doom holds Emma’s body after she swapped minds to see their Doom talking to him. There Doom was saying that he’s seen it all. He’s seen that the Fantastic Four always win and always find away and that Doom is always a villain. I loved that part! Then later, we see the people on Earth standing by a grave labeled Galen. Turns out, when their Doom did this very thing back in 2005, Galen (Galactus) swapped minds and went into their Dooms body. He was so overcome with grieve after destroying so much life, that he basically died in pain and sorrow. They buried him there on Earth. Johnny gave Norrin, the Silver Surfer, back his Power Cosmic so he could go be with Emma Frost ( his love) in space helping to repopulate the universe and their Reed talks to Ben saying that he knows that his Reed and Sue aren’t alive. Their Reed tried to look for their signatures and couldn’t find them anywhere in the universe. So, he doesn’t know what our Ben is doing and he thinks Rachna has another motive that he can’t figure out. Zdarsky has been killing it with Marvel 2 in 1. This story checks all the boxes. It has fantastic art. It has creative storytelling. It has a cohesive story from start to finish. It’s complex but easy to follow. You can tell it was planned out before it was written with a beginning, middle, and end. And, its giving us a Fantastic Four book without giving us our Fantastic Four. This is so well done and will no doubt be a trade on my shelf when this is all said and done right beside Hickman’s run. Now, I know we are getting FF back but I would love to still keep this book. I don’t know how but I would love to have my cake and eat it too. Zdarsky has been giving us an amazing story that I don’t want to see go. I don’t think we get FF until August so hopefully we can squeeze in some amazing issues before time runs out. Pick this issue up but make sure to read the arc first. With Thanos done, I think this may be top dog in my pull list.

It's been so long but it's finally here. Zdarsky and Cheung delivered an incredible finale to this incredible story,, and I am so excited about what's to come next. This is the best Marvel book at the moment, and everyone's missing out not reading it.

I thought this was going to be the last issue of this miniseries, but instead it was just the last issue of the first arc. Anyways, this issue was so great. It is full of jaw dropping moments and had action from the start till the end. The pace was good as well. Not to forget, Valerio Schiti did a good job on the art for a few issues, but it is great to have Jim Cheung back, he has done a wonderful job with the art in this issue!! There were some panels where the art just gives you difficulties in looking away from it. Chip Zdarsky too have done a great job with the script, along with Walden Wong who did a phenomenal job on the colouring!! Overall, an action packed issue with great script, colours and art.

It's the big finish for the Doomlactus AU, and the creators peg the needle on bigness. Epic action with superb "Time Runs Out" visuals, important lessons for the Infamous Iron Doom, and a couple all-time great "Holy ☠☠☠☠!" surprises. The only hesitation is in the tone of the ending, which seems to fall short of its full potential for meaning because our heroes are leaving this AU behind.

This is a really great issue of what has been an unexpectedly great series. The adventures of the Fantastic Four, not our FF, but an alternate universe Reed and Sue...and Doom. This is a book with big, crazy ideas, and it a lot of fun to read. And, Jim Cheung returns to do the art, and remind everyone he is one the best artists in the industry. It's a great looking book.

Very good one, solid writing and characterization of each character. Cheung is perfect for the series, so I'm glad he's back.
