I love the Captain's "France" line, as well as my signiature.
But, I dunno, there is just something wonderful about how Ellis writes the Fantastic Four (especially the Thing):
"I told you, man. His name was E-Vill."
"Was not."
"Your translator thingy called him, like, Annihilate or Nihilism or something. I mean, there's your frickin' clue train, pulled right up to the station."
- Thing and Reed
"Come on, then. I'm waiting to kill you.
- Dr. Doom
"This is seriously cool. What's it called?"
"I'm not going to tell you what it's called."
"C'mon, man. What'd you call it?"
"I was, like, thirteen years old, Johnny."
"Give."
"I called it the 'fantasti-car'."
"Dude, that stinks."
"Reed, you suck. You beyond suck."
"You fantasti-suck, dude."
"I was thirteen!"
"C'mon, Ben, let's find the fantastic-door and have a fantasti-look inside."
"Yeah. I wanna see if it has a fantasti-can."
"Think it has a fantasti-chair for your butt?"
"You can eat my fantasti--"
"I was thirteen!"
- Johnny, Reed, and the Thing
What I love is the pay off half a dozen issues later:
"This is so awesome. How do we fly it?"
"Using a similar system to the..."
"Don't say it."
"... The Fantasti-car."
"Reed, you are not naming this thing when we get it, you hear?"
"Why?"
"Your names suck."
"They do not."
"We should let Johnny name it."
[The shuttle has the name "AWESOME" sprayed across its side.]
"I could kill you."
- Johnny, Reed, Dr Storm, and Sue
I'm really surprised at UFF. I really didn't think I was going to like it, but I'm in love with these characters now.
I have to say, I think Ellis is a master at writing the team book.
