Marvel solicits for June
CBR has Marvel's June solicits, and finally we have a confirmed Doom-focused issue in Fantastic Four #9!
FANTASTIC FOUR #9
MATT FRACTION (W) * MARK BAGLEY (A/C)
Wolverine Costume Variant Also Available
* Did a good-natured prank-gone-wrong mean Ben Grimm caused the accident that led Victor Von Doom down his wicked path?
* As the sickness spreads to the other members of the family, their attention turns to righting this past wrong -- could saving Victor be the only way stop Dr. Doom?
* Before they answer that, however, they have to deal with the Council of Dooms who treat the day of the Incident as a kind of nativity -- and dozens of Dooms from dozens of realities have come to witness the birth of the Alpha Doom... oh boy that dorm room is gonna get crowded fast.
32 PGS./Rated T+ ...$2.99
Here's the cover. (I like horned mask Doom in the middle there.)
On the face of it, this sounds like it could be really interesting. I'm always there with popcorn for Doomy time travel hijinks and anything involving pre-mask Victor and the ESU era. On the other hand, I'm a little nervous because I've found Fraction's F4 run kind of bland and sucky so far. But his FF issues have been much better, so fingers crossed that this could be a good one. It's been way too long since we've had a proper Doom story.
