Back from the Dead


Wow, sorry I haven't been updating in a while-3 weeks!- I had a brief trip away and then all sorts of other factors caught up with me- and I still haven't got around to that FF #2 review as a result! Well, lots has been missed and I'll be working overtime on this blog to get us up to date over the next few days! To give a brief summary of what you can expect:

-A Dark Reign Update (Of Doom)- 'Dark Avengers', 'Captain Britain and MI-13' and 'Thor' have all hosted Dark Reign related appearances of the FF's Greatest Foe, while Namor has popped up in an X-Men Annual, and there's a Doom-related preview of Dark Avengers #2!  Reviews, summaries and thoughts all coming up!

-Fantastic Feedback- The first new issue of FF since the blog started! Full review on it's way!

-A new creative team for the World's Greatest announced, lots of interviews to link to and lots of thoughts from yours truly!

-And between all this, I may be able to squeeze up the FF #2 review as well! Keep your eyes peeled!

What's it all about?

Welcome to Two Guys, a Girl and a Thing, the newest home of everyone's favourite Fantastic Foursome on the blogosphere. I'm active around the internet from Alvaro's to CBR under various names, most commonly 'Doctor of Doom', though a few people may know me as 'Magneto Rocks' and the majority... not at all... but other than one extremely brief attempt, I've never had a blog before. I figured that to start with, I should probably note what the blog is actually about. In essence, it's about exactly what it says in the title- all things Fantastic Four. Why the Four? Because they're my favourite property in all of comicdom, and they're criminally underrepresented on the Internet. So what does that entail? As I see it, it includes-

-Reviewing new issues as they come out

-Linking to and sharing my views on any FF-related news.

-Discussing anything relevant to the Four- this includes anything relevant to their friends and enemies

-And finally and most importantly, what I see as the site's main function- at least once a wee- hopefully more frequently- I'll be going through Fantastic Four issue by issue starting from the beginning and posting my thoughts, views and general analysis. The inspiration for this comes from the wonderful Fourth World Fridays. (See my links bar!) As with that blog, I may mock, cajole and even be insulting or incredulous, but please, don't doubt for a second that the first 100 issues or so of Fantastic Four are to my mind probably the best comics ever written. Though even that may not quite excuse Doom's pet tiger.

From time to time, I may also post general thoughts on non-Four stuff, but I'll try to keep that to a minimum where possible.  Feel free to post thoughts, comments, feedback or whatever you want, and please- forgive my poor attempts at humour which may be liberally scattered throughout. And let's try and have some fun.
