Episode 217 Fantastic Four (2014) V5 #644: "Back in Blue: Part 4"

We are in the thick of it. The penultimate issue of this run. Fights occurring, punches throwing, dreams invading, words writing, etcetera ectering. This is a book with both pictures and words. There is plot, there is development. There is a podcaster who is struggling to write on a Monday morning. There is a problem. And when there is a problem, you need a team to deal with it. Assembling your team is important and vital. You should be careful in choosing, or else you will get stuck with a throwaway 90's character. And nobody wants that to happen. When putting your team together, first impressions are everything. You should think about how you present and introduce yourself. Hugging your interviewer during the meeting process is not a good start. Fighting with your team is good. Fighting against your team is bad. Know the difference. You should know how to pose for team photos. Some say teamwork, some say power compatibility, I say it is all about how you all strut. You need balance or an understanding of lead and support. You need to show power, to be power. After your team has successfully mastered posing in front of a camera, and testing your super-powers at least once, you should be ready to face an evil super villain. Go big or go home. Either way, you will probably go home in a box, but you will look good doing it. Alternatively, you can just do it all yourself and smack fools. Gather your team, and listen to our podcast. Bravo, you have made it to the end of this rant. Here is to the next one.   Check out some of the pictures we talk about on our website: https://jeffandrickpresent.wordpress.com/2026/06/29/fantastic-four-2014-v5-644-back-in-blue-part-4/   We also have some merchandise over at Redbubble.
