I guess I became tired of reading the comic book equivalant of a giant Twinkie. NO SUBSTANCE. I dropped Fantastic Four after the end of the second arc.

It's probably Millar's best work in years *because* he has to shift his style so much for these characters, but as a result he'd already turned off FF fans with a weak first arc and his name alone and turned off a lot of Ultimates-era Millar fans by doing that dorky book about FAMILY. I don't know why, but Fantastic Four is on its way to becoming Marvel's Aquaman, where absolutely NOBODY can give it the sales it deserves.
