[net.comics] Rebuttal of replacement

dub@pur-phy.UUCP (Paul Simmington) (11/11/84)

	Reading through the network news, I came upon a particular
article that mentioned what might happen when Ben Grimm returns
to the Fantastic Four or Five.
	I agree with the writer of the previous article that
Sue Richards is most likely to leave.  There have been two others
who have temporarily joined while Sue took a vacation.  The previous
article mentioned Medusa of the Inhumans.  But le us not forget
Thundra, a woman with great strength (almost as great as She-hulk.)
	It would also seem that Marvel might, in fact, throw Johnny
out for some time.  They always mention about him returning to
college.  Maybe this will be the time and Wingfoot will take
his place.
	It might also be good to mention that Reed has been
the driving force behind the FF and it might be interesting to 
see him retire for a little while.  But, of course, who would run
the team?  She-hulk and Ben have muscles but few brains.  Johnny
is still a whimply brat, unfit to command, so that would
leave Wingfoot for the job.  Something to think about.

Hmm... might be interesting to replace *all four*... how about Thundra,
Wyatt, She-Hulk and ... oh, say Tony Stark?

Great, then we could call it the New, New Justice League!

Seriously, if Reed quit temporarily, Sue could take over as
leader of the FF.  Look at Nenry Pym and Janet--he retired from the
Avengers and she went on to become Chairman(woman).
Of course they later got divorced, but the decision
to have only one mate be an active Avenger preceded the
marital  breakup by quite a while.
