I Expected More Character-wise
Format: Kindle
Ryan North's Fantastic Four series is a fantastic read, and the titular heroes are a well-written team. But, the characters featured in this series seem pretty shallow, if not stupid.
I get that to move a series along you need the characters to exhibit recognizable surface-level traits and to get them into situations in rather short order, but asides from Doom's elaborate planning, the characters in this comic feel hollow to me.
There are eight more issues to go, and I'm onboard for the conclusion, but I hope that this main series gets some personality on its own apart from needing the accompanying tie-in series to do that.
