Newsarama: FUTURE FOUNDATION Launches Into the MARVEL Multiverse…

Will Robson and I had a chance to talk with Newsarama contributor Zack Smith about the future of The Future Foundation.

Nrama: What do you feel makes the book unique among the other superhero titles out there?

Whitley: I take the pedigree of this book very seriously. There are only two writers who have written a book called “Future Foundation” before now – Jonathan Hickman and Matt Fraction. Those are two of the best writers working today and I don’t intend to be the one who drops the ball. We’re going big from the first issue and you’ll never finish an issue and not want the next one right away, I promise that.

Robson: This book to me is the X-Men of space. Young heroes struggling to find their place not only in this world, but on many.

The Future is Here!

Adventures in Poor Taste rates Future Foundation #1 an 8.5!

The Future Foundation is a fairly recent addition to Marvel’s teams, but they are a natural addition to the universe that have felt like they belonged from their inception. Whitley and Robson have delivered a wonderful return for the team, showing exactly what makes them stand out from the rest of the universe and why they’re so fun to read.

Weird Science Marvel Comics offers up a few spoilers, and gives the book an 8.3/10!

Whitley sprinkles in subtle humorous elements and banter between the characters showing the family dynamic of the team while introducing the cast of characters for new readers who are leaping into the series with a fresh take on the Fantastic Four series. New readers will fall in love with this team while old fans of Hickman’s FUTURE FOUNDATION will latch on to this incarnation awaiting the clever tales to come. The only aspect missing from the issue was Valeria and Franklin Richards. This reviewer hopes they can rejoin the team in the future.
