Marvel Comics released a teaser for the final issue of its long-running title The Fantastic Four. Jonathan Hickman wrote a powerful issue which featured a hero’s death that arguably met the expectations of fans of the medium.
Hero saves friend. Hero saves world. Hero makes the ultimate sacrifice. Powerful stuff.
Hickman has proven that he knows how to write a touching scene and I imagine he will do so again when Spider-Man shares a comforting moment with Franklin Richards to discuss the loss of an uncle. That said, I found it odd that artist Nick Dragotta has drawn Spidey in a very menacing pose, looking as though he is about to pounce on young Franklin.
