Fantastic Four #700 by writer Ryan North, artist Iban Coello, colorist Jesus Aburtov, and letterer Joe Caramagna mainly focuses on Doctor Doom as he sends himself into a timeloop attempting to bring back the m💮issing Baxter Building, which is currently displaced in time by one year.
Doom's story is a poetic tragedy befitting the unquestioned monarch of Latveria. But it's the last few pages of Fantastic Four #700 (which is also Fantastic Four #7, thanks to '澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Legacy Numbering') that hide a particularly interesting ne𓂃w development for not just the Fantastic Four, but the entire Marve𝄹l Universe.
Spoilers ahead for Fantastic Four #700
In the last few pages of Fantastic Four #700, Nick Fury Jr. (son of the original and the Marvel Universe's current top super spy) meets with Maria H🍬ill, wh♑o is currently the head of the CIA in Marvel Comics.
The original SHIELD was intro𒀰duced in 1965's Strange Tales #135 by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, with an acronym meaning Supreme Headquarters, International Espionage and Law-Enforcement Division.
That was later updated to Strategic Hazard Intervention Espionage Logistics Directorate. And in the MCU, as well as some other sources, SHIELD stands for Strategic Homeland Intervention, En൩forcement and Logisticܫs Division.
Now, as🌳 of the founding of Maria Hill's new SHIELD, the acronym stands for Super Human Intelligence: Extra-Legal Division - and it's apparently all geared up to snoop on the Fantastic Four in the coming months.
Fantastic Four #8 goes on sale June 7.
The only thing Marvel Studios needs to do to get the Fantastic Four reboot movie right is look directly to comics for inspiration.
