Fantastic Four #723 

 

I am a little shocked that the Fantastic Four #723 comic book costs $4.99 when there are only twenty pages of content. After the reboot this comic book also shows as Fantastic Four #30. The deeper I get into the comic book industry the more messed up I realize it is on so many different levels. There is quite a bit of emotion and thought put into this comic book.

Spoilers are going to be a part of this review. Fantastic Four #723 happens right after the events of One World Under Doom #2. Doom cures Ben and the Marvel Universe loses The Thing. Ben is completely human in Fantastic Four #723. Here is an interesting tidbit on that - Ben did not ask for that to happen. Ben was at peace with who he was.

Ben’s wife tries to cheer him up with a date night in Fantastic Four #723. A robber tries to steal from them and Ben reacts as a hero. He gets shot in the hand for his heroics in Fantastic Four #723. Ben is not happy without having his powers anymore. Depression sinks in for Ben in Fantastic Four #723. Ben does not deal with the changes to well.

Ben really struggles with the changes to his body in Fantastic Four #723. Ben even gets depressed. Ben lies to his family and friends in this comic book. He tells he will get discharged from the hospital in the afternoon. He actually got out in the morning. He goes to his father in law to get turned back into The Thing. The man cannot do that, so a smile is put on his face instead.

I find it interesting that so many people want to help Ben in this comic book. He could be happy and embrace finally being human again. He chooses to be miserable instead in Fantastic Four #723. How would you feel if that change happened to you? Fantastic Four #723 really made me think about the different reactions by the different characters.
