Those were great times to read Marvel comics.<br /><br />David, I wish I could recommend Wolfman's entire run on <i>Fantastic Four</i> to you, but, as Edo points out, not all of his FF issues received favorable word-of-mouth. I suppose that's all the more reason why FF #200 stands out in such exemplary fashion. He and his team gave that story a lot of quality attention, and they certainly deserve the kudos for it.<br /><br />Murray (as well as Edo and Prowler), thanks so much for your kind words. This blog is a labor of love and a pleasure to write for, and I have to extend my thanks to Marvel for <i>that</i>.Comicsfanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10064955427593820783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142199900369238852.post-76169118849480756502014-06-16T15:36:20.316-04:002014-06-16T15:36:20.316-04:00Great review!

I only had one or two of the preceding issues in this arc, but I became a regular reader after this (as regular as spotty spinner rack distribution allowed).<br />Looking forward to part 2.Edo Bosnarnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142199900369238852.post-42557951194390164652014-06-16T10:34:58.693-04:002014-06-16T10:34:58.693-04:00This was one of the few issues I collected after m...This was one of the few issues I collected after my initial collecting stint from 1973 to '76.<br /><br />At a time when I no longer seemed connected to Marvel with all these new artists and writers, I was comforted by the great art, excellent pacing and panel work. That one pic of the four of 'em sitting in single-file in the pogo plane was the best depiction for me. THAT was the image of classic FF that I adore. Suffice to say, I at least picked up the remaining Doom story-arc issues leading up to this, then a few after before losing interest again (AND spotty distribution problems).<br /><br />I will say, awesome story and yes, Marvel FINALLY did an anniversary 'hundredth' issue right.

Well done blog and reviews, sirrah! That's a lot of fine work.<br /><br />Colin-you've answered your own thought. Being a megalomaniac means part of their brain ain't quite right. Their drive for domination and power takes them beyond practical concerns. You can explain to a kleptomaniac all day that repeated shoplifting will someday land them in the crowbar hotel, but that isn't gonna stop their desire to steal.Murrayhttp://www.murraylindsay.canoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142199900369238852.post-19382690171261576822014-06-16T09:12:04.238-04:002014-06-16T09:12:04.238-04:00Firstly: another bang up job on the reviews.

It brings to mind those great months where you'd read the new Spider-Man, then Thor, then Fantastic Four, Conan, I guess everybody had their order. There were quite a few times where one could hardly wait to get home and read the new issue.<br /><br />B: PART ONE!!!! PART ONE!!! I have to wait to see how this ends!!???!!! FAN!!!! FANNNNNN!!!! Oh thou art a cruel one indeed......This is just like both of my dates in high school.<br /><br />The Prowler ( ).<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142199900369238852.post-71836306999135008572014-06-16T08:36:02.040-04:002014-06-16T08:36:02.040-04:00I don't know why anybody would want to rule th...I don't know why anybody would want to rule the world - there'd be so many problems to deal with but these super-villain meglomaniacs never think of that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
