Thor For President?

Mark Millar (Ultimates, The Authority) Strikes again!
i just finished reading Ultimate Fantastic Four #28, part 2 (of 3) in a storyline called "President Thor"... Reed Richards, the big brain of the FF, has succumbed to his guilt over not being able to cure Ben Grimm being turned into the rocky, monstrous Thing. his new solution is to travel back in time and prevent the accident that gave the FF their powers, (which would include curing Ben!). if you think that solution sounds good, you'll be pleased to find out it worked... with the little added side effect of changing the course of history!

but hey, don't be sad! now every person on earth has been transformed into a superhuman (except Ben Grimm, the last human...), Thor is president of the United States (Reed is VeePee), and the emperor of the most benevoloent race in the universe is paying his first visit to the planet. that's right, Washington DC plays host to the Super Skrull this issue (if you thought the Skrulls were supposed to be evil, you must have been brainwashed by racist, anti-skrull propaganda...).

i won't give any more away, and even if i tried, i doubt i could do justice to Millar's beautifully psychopathic writing, nor substitute for the lovely art of Greg Land (Sojourn)!

i haven't been reading this book, so i couldn't recommend it to you... i'm so sorry! go to a comic shop or bookstore and COP Millar's Ultimate Fantastic Four!!!

holla!
samax.
