Fantastic Four: First Steps #1

Marvel's Fantastic Four: First Steps launches with a cover by Phil Noto that puts the team's retro-styled blue uniforms front and center — the Thing and Mr. Fantastic anchor the foreground as they wrestle a massive, roaring green creature with a stretching blue beam between them, while the Invisible Woman shields herself inside a force bubble and the Human Torch blazes a fiery arc overhead. The corner portraits of all four members give the whole package an endearing, Silver Age sensibility that feels fresh in 2025. With Matt Fraction writing and Mark Buckingham on art, this opening issue promises an adventure that honors the team's spirit of wonder while planting its own flag.
