BEFORE THE FANTASTIC FOUR: REED RICHARDS #1-3 (2000)

The second miniseries telling about members of the FF before they were exposed to cosmic rays focuses on Reed Richards and starts with Franklin Richards going through Reed’s childhood keepsakes…

…Which leads Reed to tell his son stories of his experiences after he left the military.

The early days of Von Doom are also covered, which kind of doesn’t make sense to me. I thought they met for the first time in college. It seems like this must take place after they met but before Reed built the rocket, but my understanding was that that was a pretty narrow period of time.

Whatever.

The story isn’t terrible. It’s Peter David. I just don’t care that much.
