To a certain extent, the artist eschews his signature style of realistic renderings and pays homage to the much more graphical and simplified forms and colors of Jack Kirby, creating an interesting fusion of two great artist styles and is definitely a fresh take on Alex Ross’s usual work. I’ve been following the stunning work of Alex Ross for some time now ( check out my reviews for his previous comics/art books ) and he hasn’t released any new comic for quite a while, so Full Circle quickly piqued my attention. The book also features a special poster jacket, with the front flap unfolding to reveal an all-new fully painted origin story of the Fantastic Four.
With bold, vivid colors and his trademark visual storytelling, Ross takes Marvel’s first team of super heroes to places only he can illustrate. The Fantastic Four have no choice but to journey into the Negative Zone, an alien universe composed entirely of anti-matter, risking not just their own lives but the fate of the cosmos!įantastic Four: Full Circle is the first longform work written and illustrated by acclaimed artist Alex Ross, who revisits a classic Stan Lee–Jack Kirby story from the 1960s and introduces the storyline for a new generation of readers.
But for what purpose? And who is behind this untimely invasion?
These carrion creatures composed of Negative Energy come to Earth using a human host as a delivery system. When an intruder suddenly appears inside the Baxter Building, the Fantastic Four-Mister Fantastic (Reed Richards), the Invisible Woman (Susan Storm Richards), the Human Torch (Johnny Storm), and the Thing (Ben Grimm)-find themselves surrounded by a swarm of invading parasites.
It’s a rainy night in Manhattan and not a creature is stirring except for.
