I FANTASTICI 4
FANTASTIC FOUR
prima serie Editoriale Corno
dopo 4 episodi consecutivi in trasferta lontanissimi da casa nella desolazione socialista di Latveria oltre la cortina di ferro dove all’ epoca era impossibile trovare blue jeans, collant femminili e coca-cola (a meno che non li portassero clandestinamente buoni samaritani tipo Quinto, un tale del mio paese che ai tempi faceva la spola in macchina avanti e indietro per scambiare beni superflui europei di contrabbando con la generosa mercificazione di signorotte e giovinastre locali altrettanto abbondanti di materiale superfluo, nella fattispecie però più che altro pelo) mentre la domenica e le feste comandate a tavola si pasteggiava sì e no a pane e cicoria, ecco che i Fantastici 4 allargati (oltre al quartetto classico infatti adesso a riequilibrare parzialmente le quote rosa c’è anche la disinvolta e spregiudicata Crystal) tornano finalmente nel civile mondo consumista newyorchese dove oltre a traffico ed inquinamento li aspetta il neonato Franklin Benjamin (che però non si chiama ancora così perchè i genitori sono ancora indecisi sul nome da dargli e tarderanno ancora 6 numeri a farlo), ma non c’è mica tempo di godersi il pupo che subito salta fuori il nemico rompiballe di turno che stavolta è di nuovo quel fellone inverecondo e recidivo dell’ Uomo talpa

Synopsis
Returning home from Latveria, Sue takes the rest of the FF to see the
house that she purchased for herself, Reed, and the baby. Unbeknownst
to everyone, there is somebody in the house monitoring their every move.
While moving items to the house, each member of the FF begins to notice
their vision is starting to get strained. When the unseen watcher
reveals himself as the Mole Man, he activates a machine which makes
everyone in the house go blind.
Notes
- The Mole Man last clashed with the Fantastic Four during the massive attack on Reed and Sue’s wedding in Fantastic Four Annual #3 (in Italy in F4C #39). Chronologically prior to this story, the Mole Man was last seen in X-Men #34 (in Italy in CAPC #36), this was during his ongoing conflict with Tyrannus for dominion of Subterranea. This most recent bout was ended by the X-Men.
That story ended with the Mole Man and Tyrannus being stricken with
amnesia thanks to mists native to Subterranea. While the return of his
memory is not explained here, that plot hole was closed in X-Men: The Hidden Years #21 (in Italy in XM-GLI ANNI PERDUTI ULT.COLL. #3), wherein the Mole Man explains that the effects of the mists he was exposed to were only temporary. - Reed and Sue do not choose a name for their son until Fantastic Four #94 (in Italy in F4C #92).
