    Default Matt Fraction, Mark Bagley & Mike Allred Team For "Fantastic Four," "FF"

    Today's Marvel teasers indicate that Matt Fraction and Mark Bagley will be taking over "Fantastic Four" while Fraction and artist Mike Allred will handle the relaunched "FF" title.

    So glad it's not Larocca. I very much dislike his current style. It's like he tries to be photo realistic but just ends up in the "uncanny valley".

    I'm totally there for both of these. I've always wanted Bags to have a run on Fantastic Four. He does an excellent job any time he draws them. I was actually just thinking, while reading the preview for the upcoming ish of Avengers Assemble, that his FF looks super rad. That should be pretty awesome. This really does seem like the type of book that Fraction could knock out of the park.

    Mike Allred on FF? That would be just too good to be truth!

    Excited for Allred on FF. Hopefully Defenders Fraction shows up and not Uncanny X-Men/Fear Itself Fraction.

    I am completely feelingless on Bagley. He is the absolute middle of all comic art to me. If I like an artist, I think they are better than Bagley. If I dislike an artist, I think they are worse. As for Bagley himself, just no feeling one way or the other.
    Captain Universe is not Monica Rambeau. Monica Rambeau is not in Avengers.

    Wait. Where does this leave Ryan Stegman? I thought he was going to be the Fantastic Four artist.

    Larocca probably wasn't a high likelihood given the alleged intent of the Now line. Marvel's indicated they're trying to shake up the creative teams and Larocca has had a decent sized run on Fantastic Four before. Not surprising they'd want to try someone else.

    With regards to the actual release, I'll be honest, this is the first of the teasers I'm leaning pass on. Fraction's hit and miss and I'm just so tired of Bagley. Loved him back in the day, but he draws exactly two faces.

    First off....FF continues, yay.
    Next....Fraction and Allred!!!
    This is way better news than I expected.
    Very glad that rumor site was wrong about the F4 teams.

    Fraction and Allred. Might give it a look see. Hoping that it's Hawkeye/Iron Fist Fraction, not Thor/Iron man Fraction.

    Will definitely give these a trial run. Matt has earned my kudos for Defenders and Hawkeye so I think he could take F4 and FF into interesting directions. Perhaps why he is toying with Celestials and Silver Surfer in Defenders?
    Wake me up when it's over...
