With Matt Fraction and Mark Bagley's run at an end and the All-New Marvel NOW! version of Fantastic Four #1 about to hit the stands, Marvel Comics have released a preview of the first issue. You can see the preview pages, as well as the solicitation text, embedded below. Written by James Robinson and featuring art by Leonard Kirk, the series is starting essentially from ground zero, with the team being laid low and ultimately kicked out of the Baxter Building in the first arc, all while facing down Fing-Fang-Foom. Comic Book Resources posted the preview pages for the issue--which goes on sale next Wednesday, February 26--at just the right time: Fantastic Four has been trending on Twitter and Facebook for most of the day following the announcement that Fox has apparently assembled the cast for the new movie, which is expected to start shooting in March in Louisiana. FANTASTIC FOUR #1 James Robinson (writer) Leonard Kirk (art/cover) Jerome Opena, Skottie Young, Katie Cook, Alex Ross (variants) ON SALE: 02/26/2014 The world's greatest comics magazine begins anew with Marvel's First Family, the Fantastic Four!
