Club ÒIn short, everything about The Terrifics is, well, terrific.Ó ÑComicosity A billionaire genius. A shape-shifting wise guy. An intangible alien. An elemental powerhouse. At first glance, these four heroes have nothing in common. But when Plastic Man, Phantom Girl, Metamorpho and Mr. Terrific are thrown together by fate, they become something greater than the sum of its partsÉsomething truly terrific!

In each of these incredible characters, the spirt of exploration and the hope for a better tomorrow burns so brightly that not even the black magic of the Dark Multiverse can snuff it out!

The all-star creative team of Jeff Lemire, Ivan Reis, Evan ÒDocÓ Shaner and Joe Bennett usher in a new age of heroes with the most talked-about team book of the year! Collects The Terrifics #1-6.

This was a lot of fun! As pretty well every comics commentator has pointed out, it‘s basically DC Does The Fantastic Four, minus the family angle but with craploads of space adventures, multiversal shenanigans, and ever-evolving team dynamics. I like these characters and I want to see where they‘ll end up next as they try to break the dark matter bond that ropes them together. Who wants to bet they ARE a family by then? #caseyplusbooks

GrilledCheeseSamurai I liked this first volume but haven't read anymore since Marvel brought the FF back. 😅 5y
