A New Cover Posted Every Day! Join the Facebook Fan Page at: www.facebook.com/SuperTeamFamilyTheLostIssues
I haven't seen the new FF movie yet, but I hear that Pedro Pascal is pretty good as Reed despite the mustache and limited stretching scenes. I was worried about the casting, so that's good to hear.
This cover required some decluttering and background replacement. Here is a look at the behind the scenes progress:

Grodd versus Dr, Doom! That would be an amazing battle!
Cool. I recognize the splash page. From the original Super-Team Family series! Nice job, Ross!
This is the type of cover where you stand out, Ross! Barry & Reed is one thing, but Victor vs Grodd ??Early days before Doom's force fields. Comics would still be riding high!!
Flash is used to working with stretchy characters. I'd expect at least one joke in the story about that: "Thanks, Ralph. Whoops, sorry Reed."
I can personally vouch for the fact that FF: First Steps is way better than the previous silver screen iteration of the Fantastic Four. And most definitely better than the James Gunn Superman! As for today's cover? Masterful! Just plain masterful.. Well done!
I agree with what you've heard -- Pedro is a decent Mister Fantastic, even if he doesn't look the part. I don't expect the movie to win any Academy Awards outside the art department, but I do think it's better than the 2005 iteration -- and I happen to love that version.
(Cary's comparison of this movie to the 2015 iteration isn't really fair, considering how that one is the second worst superhero movie I've ever seen, with only Batman & Robin outdoing it.)
Wow! What a classic pairing! (No, not Flash and Mr F - Grodd and the Good Doctor.)
And absolutely standout work on transforming the cluttered page you started with into an epic cover!
Gotta permanently disagree, Bob. "Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer" was way more comic-book faithful than the needless revision that came out ten years later.
What Dave said. :-)
The layout looks fantastic. You made all the elements look like they belong together. Plus, it's an exciting cover.
Bat Nipples A-AWAYYY!! Holy bat fan repelalllaant!
Not a fan of Gunn's Superman? I loved it! Hopeful, optimistic, everything a Superman movie should be! Kindness and empathy are the new punk rock!
WeII, let's put it this way, Ben. I gave the new Super-flick five stars out ot ten. "First Steps" got nine stars.
@Ben @ Tobor: I blame the box office failure of B&R on the costume designer. He should be sprayed with Bat employment repellent!
@Anon@11:52: So, what exactly are you disagreeing with me about?
The FF movie that _never_ got released was numero uno el stinko of the superhero genre!
That's one that I haven't seen (and, to also be fair, I've not seen Steel with Shaquille O'Neal).
And yet, the stars of that 90s FF movie still scored cameos in the new film.
Anon@7:05: Just the costume designer? Blame the director, who decided to go the campy route with the script. I mean, it's really something to make a movie with talent like George Clooney, Chris O'Donnell, Alicia Silverstone, Michael Gough, and Uma Thurman, and the only really good performance came from Arnold Schwarzenegger.
I actually got a headache -- and almost cried -- when we saw the Bat-credit card. That, for me, is the most offensive moment in the history of superhero movies.
Sad, but true. He was basically plagiarizing the actress who played Elektra: "What's in your wallet?"
@Anon1244: I'm afraid that's not possible. BATMAN & ROBIN came out in 1997. Jennifer Garner didn't become spokesperson for Capital One till 2014!
@Anon1244: you might be thinking of James Garner who did those Financial Freedom ads.
Then, they must've been more invisible than Sue Storm. I didn't spot them, at all!
From the Wikipedia article: "Alex Hyde-White, Rebecca Staab, Jay Underwood, and Michael Bailey Smith, who portrayed the titular team in the unreleased 1994 film The Fantastic Four, make cameo appearances: Hyde-White and Staab play television journalists, Underwood and Smith play power plant workers who salute Johnny, and all four appear together as civilians thanking the Fantastic Four."
Then, not so much invisible as putting in literally forgettable performances.
