Fantastic Four vs X-Men (1987) #4

[frozenrose20]

What I always find ironic about comics is that for Marvel Spider-Man, the X-Men and the Hulk are probably the most loved characters but they are absolutely hated in the actual comic world but in contrast the Fantastic Four who are probably the most beloved or at least most popular in their world are kinda the most underrated team currently. ( please you guys they need more respect at this point. The movie is probably my only hope for them to be main stream again) I think this is just such a fun parallel compared to DC's characters ( superman, flash, batman, and wonder woman) who are beloved in the comics ( for the moat part) and with comic book readers.

Video Game Idea: Marvel vs. Capcom 4: Heroes Return

Hey! Marvel vs. Capcom is popular again! And it's all thanks to the recent account of Marvel vs. Capcom: Fighting Collection, a compilation pack of all the arcade MvC games and Marvel arcade games Capcom produced that's being released later this year.

This has gotten many people excited for three reasons...

This is the first time we've heard anything new about the Marvel vs. Capcom series in almost a decade!

This is the first time the games have been complied together

This possibly means that the Marvel vs. Capcom may actually be returning for a new installment in the near future

And this led many people to speculate and give ideas on what a Marvel vs. Capcom 4 would be like.

And since I like coming up with game ideas, I figured I'd hop on the train.

So sit back, relax, and join me while I take you on a train through my idea for the game....

Marvel vs. Capcom 4: Heroes Return!

(This is gonna be a short one, so bare with me)

Gameplay-wise, Heroes Return would essentially follow the same mechanics as Fate of Two Worlds, from the combat system to even bringing back being able to switch between three characters.

The new gameplay addition would the modified Team Combos.

Here, either two or three of your team can perform a Hyper Combo.

And it would be accompanied by actual names for the Combos, and a cool ass cinematic!

For the look of this game, it would bring back the cel-shaded look of Fate of Two Worlds, but obviously a little more polished with the advanced technology of today’s consoles.

Now we come to undoubtedly the most important part of the game: the roster.

Heroes Return would feature the biggest roster seen in the series by far, with a total of 100 characters (with there being 50 characters evenly for both brands).

And those 50 characters on both sides would be split evenly into two groups: Heroes and Villains.

Let’s start off with Capcom, since they deserve to go first after the bullshit they went through with the last game.

On the Heroes side, returning from the previous games we have….

On the Capcom side, we have….

.Genbu Temple

.Castle Wily

.Movie Land

.Courtroom

.The Demon World

.Kamiki Village

.Kazakh City

.The Ghost Town

.Zeltzereich Castle

.Metro City

.Space Fleet

As for the Marvel side, we have....

.Asgard

.The Danger Room

.The Sanctum Sanctorum

.Harlem

.The Baxter Building

.Asteroid M

.Shadowland

.The Negative Zone

.Jotunheim

.Latveria

And finally, this game would actually have a Story Mode! Being the first in the franchise to do so.

The first of actual worth....

Anyway, the story is pretty simple. It's essentially like Marvel Ultimate Alliance, except with Capcom thrown into the mix.

Essentially, an alliance between various Capcom and Marvel villains have been formed, led by M. Bison and Doctor Doom, who plan on using their combined skills and abilities to conquer the world and further their respective goals.

Luckily, this manages to catch the attention of Dr. Light and Nick Fury, who decide to retaliate by forming their own alliance of heroes to fight against them.

Once again, really simple story, but what will really make it engaging are the world-building and characters iterations.

The world of Marvel vs. Capcom has always been interesting to think about, since it appears to be a world where the Marvel and Capcom characters co-exists with each other.

But we've never really been given an in-depth look on what the world is like or how it works.

From what it seems like, the two brands have always shared this world.

And if that's the case, it would be cool to see how the corners of Marvel and Capcom connect to each other.

Or maybe this could like Battleworld from the Secret Wars event, where their world is the result of the Capcom worlds and the Marvel Universe being merged into one huge world!

As for the characters iterations, I can see so many between the Marvel and Capcom characters.

Some of the ones I can think of the top of my head include....

-Cyclops and Ryu being friendly rivals akin to the latter and Ken. Well, before Ken....ya know, fell off.

-Spider-Man and Morrigan being total besties and often throwing quips together while in battle.

-M.O.D.O.K. and Dr. Wily getting into constant arguments and trying to prove whose the better genius.

-Toad constantly simping for Juri, who as you would expect, isn't having any of it.

-Iron Man being a big brother figure to Mega Man.

-Hulk being an absolute dog person around Amaterasu.

-Deadpool constantly hitting on Chun Li, complimenting her thick legs, only to get his ass kicked every time.

-Magneto and Vergil bonding over their "I'm better than you" personalities, usually talking trash about their fellow villains behind their backs.

-Venom being Claire's big buddy and always telling her to...

Well that's all I have for now!

Let me know what you guys think about idea of mine's.

But most of all, let me know what you all think about the roster, since I believe that's the most important part of any Marvel vs. Capcom.

When making it, I wanted to make sure that both sides were perfectly even.

And for the Marvel side of things, I wanted to include faces from all over their universe rather than just utilizing the ones who are the big names in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

And addition to that, there will be no MCU SYNERGY at all in this game.

Because we all know how much it helped the last game....

[bulletblade]

Welcome to the Penultimate Part of our Marvel AXIS Wars fighting game roster.

For those unaware, Marvel AXIS Wars is basically a Marvel Injustice Roster I came up with alongside some of you.

For context, here is the base roster, plus the first wave of DLC:

And here is all of the DLC characters:

All right, we've got a lot to cover in terms of reasoning.

Annihulus: Annihulus is here because I learned that Shuma-Gorath is a Conan the Barbarian character and is an alternate option if we can't get him.

Quicksilver/Moon Knight: The ultimate 6160 line needed a villain, and I wanted to keep the number of reps from each comic kind of fair, so Quicksilver took Moon Knight's spot on the Distorted Cosmos section.

From here on out, we'll be covering the Director's Cut Version, which means each pair of characters had a biased reasoning for joining.

Storm and Akuma: I love X-Men vs. Street Fighter, plus Storm, felt like one of those characters I'd get skinned alive for not adding.

Monkey King and Agatha Harkness: These two were from my first and second attempts of this roster way before I got a Tumblr. Monkey King was added as an oddball choice, and Agatha was chosen to return thanks to you.

Hank Pym and Super Skrull: There was an idea back in the early 2020s, where a group of remarkable people would come together to make a pair of fan made cinematic-esque universes. One and Marvel Universe, featuring a more detailed look at some of its classic, more underappreciated characters with Ant-Man as the figurehead. The other DC, because Warner Brothers kept messing up their cinematic universe, where I figured Martian Manhunter would head the franchise. Two friendly rival projects that came together to help each other and eventually would cross over.

However, if you remember, I said Ronan originally held this spot before Super Skrull. Why was that?

Because I figured that before Ant-Man would begin work, a testing ground would be needed to test the creator. Thus, the Kree Skrull Alliance was thought of. If you want an idea of the plot synopsis, it's basically if Romeo's best friend and Juilet's ex went on a buddy cop adventure where they had to save Romeo and Juilet's baby from Shakespeare.

The name of the projects would be called a Fanimated Universe, but has only been an idea floated around by me and a few other people. So tell me...

[jazzmandd]

Six characters today because I keep forgetting to update here daily! A double dose of baddies with Akuma and Doom, new animal challengers with Beast and Yellow Iris, and just some cool dudes with Strider and Gambit.

[heyyallitsbeth]

Here's a not-so-fun "fact"

The reason that a lot of Spider-Man comics and stories absolutely beat down on Peter Parker and also suck in other ways is because Marvel *HATES* Spider-Man and wants him to not be the most popular super hero.

The developers for Marvel VS Capcom Infinite revealed they wanted to use XMen, the Fantastic Four, and Miles Morales in Infinite, however, Marvel did not want any of the characters added as they didnt own the film rights to these characters at the time and were "in the process of phasing them out". If they didnt get the rights back, the Fantastic Four and XMen were just gonna fade away into the back catalogue, less cared about, no longer a focus. The only reason Spider-Man is in MvC:I is because he is simply too popular. Everyone fuckin loves Spidey. Except Marvel, who is upset that Sony wont sell them the rights back.

So my theory is that the reason Marvel keeps fuckin making Peter's life miserable is because they *want* fans to give up on Spider-Man, and read some of their other (worse) comics.

[bobbyskizza]

Reading Fantastic Four vs Xmen from 1987 and boy Chris Claremont and John Bogdanove do an incredible job.

Sue getting so angry her force field emanating out with such force it destroys her costume.

This incredible looking transformation when Johnny flames on.

And Rogue kissing Ben absorbing his powers and understanding who he is in the process.

All of this is from issue 2, it's top tier.

My infinity saga theory

So I think it will be the heroes of the mcu vs kangs. Alot of heroes and kangs will be wiped out. But then the Beyonder will show up with multiple heroes and villains kicking off the secret wars.

Six people each one has powers connected to a different infinity stones will defeat the beyonder but they'll Reboot the universe becoming the new infinity stones. And the new universe will have stories mostly about the xmen, fantastic four, spiderman, hopefully the hulk, and young avengers.

[just-a-local-lunatic]

interesting that this little plot point has popped back up...

I am a big subscriber to the “Charles and Erik took that knowledge from Reed and used it for themselves to mask Franklin’s X-Gene and manipulate him into thinking he’s not actually a mutant because he was a threat to them” theory, so this is very interesting indeed...

I hope we see this brought up again soon. And of course I hope that Franklin is still a mutant because it’s really stupid that he’s not and takes away from his character :)
