Marvel Comics Universe and Fantastic Four #21 Spoilers and Review follows.
Empyre Tie-In Reveals Why Wolverine and Spider-Man Join Team, But Who Do They Kill First?!
The book has a few variant covers on top of the above.
Plus the main cover.
We open with a dramatis personae, storyline catch-up and creators’ credits all on one page.
We then see Jo-Venn and N’Kalla, Kree and Skrull child gladiators respectively who were liberated by the Fantastic Four in one of two Empyre #0 issues (Fantastic Four spoilers here and Avengers spoilers here), bickering and still not able to accept that the Kree / Skrull war is over and now it is a Kree / Skrull alliance.
While the adults of the Fantastic Four are in space for Empyre (as seen as recently as this week’s Empyre #3 with spoilers here), Brainstorm and Powerhouse must deal with their new kid house guests, but…
…they prove too much to handle so they call in some adult super-heroes to beef up the Fantastic Four.
Wolverine and Spider-Man heed the call and…
…Wolverine kills N’Kalla, the shapeshifting Skrull, due to his prejudice?!
The Pulse:
The addition of the kid Skrull and kid Kree former gladiators have added to the cool family dynamic of the book. A dun issue with solid art. Entertaining read. 8 out of 10.
