The Fantastic Four are reunited and all is well...until their convoy is interrupted by NICK SCRATCH and SALEM'S SEVEN! It's an all-out magical BATTLE for SURVIVAL right there on the highway, and the Fantastic Four 100% fail to win it. That's right! This solicit isn't going the way you thought it would! As the truth of what happened is puzzled out, Reed, Sue, Ben, Johnny and Alicia all realize that something more sinister has taken place, and their only hope of undoing it is an impromptu voyage into the unknown...

About the author

Hi, I'm Ryan! I was born in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada in 1980 and since then have written several books. You can read my Wikipedia page for more, or check out my author site at RyanNorth.ca!

I'm the author of the webcomic Dinosaur Comics (that's the comic where the pictures don't change but the words do, it's better than it sounds and I've also done crazy things like turn Shakespeare into a choose-your-own-path adventure, write a comic for Marvel about a girl with all the powers of a squirrel, or mess up walking my dog so badly it made the news.

I'm working on more stuff as we speak, hopefully it's good

super fun read but a bit too wordy (loves to explain its science)

3/5 Stars - "Up To Scratch"

It's nice to see Reed do actually interesting things with his powers in this run.

[RubiGiráldez RubiGiráldez · Rating 3 out of 5]

Desde luego, la magia es algo con el que el genio racional de Reed Richards no gusta nada lidiar... Pero en la vida de los 4 Fantásticos es inevitable que un grupo de hechiceros malvados provoquen un atasco que a su vez derivará en un problema metabólico para el cual Reed encontrará explicación... y solución. Aunque esta pase por una visita a la Dimensión Oscura y patear unos cuantos culos de demonio.

Desde luego, Ryan North está disfrutando el tener a la 1º Familia en este "remanso de paz" editorial en el que lanzarnos a aventuras individuales en medio de escenas mundanas. Sí que es algo que no va a poder mantenerse eternamente, y lo cierto es que ya está tardando en asentar el interés argumental de la gran historia que pueda haber preparado para esta nueva etapa.

The reboot that should not have happened. I have been a steady fan of the Fantastic Four since the reboot a few years ago. The new creative team, seems to lack creativity. I hate Johnny’s mustache, and it probably won’t be long before I’m no longer subscribing to this comic.

The Fantastic Four's greatest adversary: a tummy ache

[Raymond Paquette · Rating 5 out of 5]

When you have to go you really have to go. I think this is the first toilet joke in FF history but I could be mistaken.

Yeah was decent

[John Threebreadt · Rating 4 out of 5]

This issue has one of the craziest Mr Fantastic images trying to figure out 4 dimensions with his awesome mind and ... his stretch powers?

[Gary · Rating 5 out of 5]

Good plot, art and dialogue

Great issue. The plot was unusual, everyone on the team got to use their powers and gifts to solve the problems.

*4.5

Este es un número muy extraño. Nick Scratch y los Siete Salem atacan a la Primera Familia en plena carretera, teniendo también a Alicia en medio del fuego. La cuestión es que, realmente, no es fuego el medio de batalla, sino magia. Cosa que, ya sabemos, a Reed no se le da muy bien.
