Fantastic Four Rise of the Silver Surfer with Gary Jones (Divergent Comics)
I get it, movie tie ins are hard. You've got a development timeline dictated by by an unobservable force. Expectations that are already lower than a kid who gets all of their candy stolen before they get a chance to eat any of it. The only thing you can do sometimes is get your friends and family and hope that they can help you through these tortuous times. And then a new kid shows up, going on and on about how someone bigger and badder is going to come around and eat your whole planet. And the new kid is cooler than you because he has a surfboard. And he's shiney and possibly made of metal? Yeah things are getting weird. Helping me wrangle all of this insanity is Gary Jones from Divergent Comics. Which is a good thing too because I definitely needed a second opinion about some things here and Gary brought a nice calm perspective to counteract my annoyance that until very recently we just couldn't get a good Fantastic Four movie no matter how hard we tried. And I really needed him to help keep my thoughts about the movie from staining my thoughts on the game. Get those forks ready, pitch or otherwise, because I know this one is going to leave a few people hungry for more.
