Kai-18 Review of Fantastic Four: The Animated Series

Fantastic Four: The Animated Series (1994–1996)

Jack Kirby should be rolling in his grave.

[30 October 1999]

And I have no idea why Comics legend Stan Lee hosted this series. It ruins the characters with cornball dialogue, poor animation and horrendous plots. And worse Dr. Doom, the greatest comic book villain ever, doesn't excite me in the least. Even without H.E.R.B.I.E. the robot this is hands down the worst version of the Fantastic Four I've ever seen. Of course I might change my mind if I see the never released FF movie made in '93 by Roger Corman. If you want good FF action pick up The Essential Fantastic Four trade paper back at your local comic store for some classic Fantastic Four stories.
