hey /co/. I think it's time I dive into the world of the Fantastic Four. Where do I start?
I know I could start at issue #1 - but is there a recommended reading list?
Also - any other Marvel recommendations would be great.

I'd dive into her fantastic fou- wait that analogy isn't gonna work...

The original Stan and Jack run.
John Byrne's run.
Waid and Weringo's run.
Hickman's run.
Probably Simonson or DeFalco's runs as well.
What is this Fantastic Four you speak of?
start by watching more porn

Fantastic Four is one of those few comics where the advice of "start at #1" is actually good advice because the original Lee/Kirby run is genuinely fantastic and a must-read for anyone that likes Marvel. It's Lee/Kirby at their best. It has a bit of a rough start as they first get their footing, but is definitely worth checking out.
After that, I'd say Byrne's run and Hickman's run (pic related) for second and third best. Waid's run was also pretty good although he writes a shitty Doom.
Hickman's is obviously the most modern while Lee/Kirby is silver age goodness. Byrne is a nice middle-ground between the two. There's also a number of good minis and I think the Millar and Ellis issues of Ultimate Fantastic Four are worth checking out, but between those three runs, there's a lot to keep you busy. Make a thread about what you think of them! Always nice to have some F4 discussion.

Start with the 2005 film starring Jessica Alba and end your life with the 2015 film starring that guy from Whiplash

Simonson's is good. I personally have a lot of love for DeFalco's run, but it was pretty shit at times.

All of the shit in this post EXCEPT DeFalco's which was GARBAGE plus anything else listed on pic related.

Can't forget McDuffie's run. Lot of great stuff in there.

Thank you! Should I read the Spider-Man where he lives with the Human Torch? That was a thing, right?
