FF Vol. 4

The other final volume of Hickman's Fantastic Four run is here in FF Vol. 4.  In the first issue of this volume we get an inside look at what a day in the life of Johnny Storm & Peter Parker looks like as roommates.  This was set up in the previous volume but it plays out beautifully here.  When I first heard about this I thought it would be a great turn for Peter since his last roommate was such a bitch but everything that happens makes perfect sense.  They are the ultimate odd couple, anything & everything that can go wrong does from adding a door to the negative zone in Pete’s closet to Johnny putting the moves on MJ, to the final page reveal its easy to see why this wouldn’t work out.  Three of the stories tie in with events that happen concurrently with stories in Fantastic Four Vol. 6.  The final issue of this collection sees Future Franklin preparing his younger self for his destiny.  Due to Jonathan Hickman's spectacular run on this series I am really looking forward to Matt Fraction's run on the Fantastic Four.
