Before the Avengers, Marvel’s original superhero team, the Fantastic Fou, set the stage for the Marvel Universe as we know it. In this episode, we break down the team’s wild origin story, iconic powers, and their evolution from comic book legends to upcoming MCU headliners. With Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn, and Ebon Moss-Bachrach set to play the team, we discuss what this reboot means for Marvel’s future, why past versions flopped, and how Doctor Doom might still loom large even if he’s not in the movie. Plus, speculation on timelines, Kang’s exit, and where the Fantastic Four fit into the larger multiverse saga.
