Absolutely loved this mini-series. So much fun and the art was gorgeous. I usually don't double dip, but I'll definitely be picking up the hardcover when it's released.

Did it finish? I've loved what I read so far, but for some reason I thought there was one more issue still to come. Maybe I missed it.

Yep, issue 6 is on the stands. I think it came out this past week.

Sweet! Then it should be in my dcbs box tomorrow. Looking forward to that. Hope it has a good ending.

I'm also looking forward to getting #6 in my next DCBS shipment.

This has been a great series so far, and I'm REALLY curious about how it's going to tie into the FF & "Old Man Logan" stuff also written by Millar......

I'm wondering about that, too. I buy FF monthly, but I've been WFTT on 1985 and Old Man Logan. For those who have read all 3, is there ANY connection to be made yet? Or does it all remain to be seen? Will FF be the place thwere the conenctions are established?

I haven't read Marvel 1985 #6 yet.

I do seem some connections between the Old Man Logan storyline in Wolverine and the current arc in Fantastic Four. But other than being told that Marvel 1985 will connect to the other titles somehow, I'm not sure how it does.

I read 1985 #6 and I don't see an existing connection to the other stories, though I do see where Millar could weave something in during subsequent stories.....

In the latest FF solicitation, "a threat from the world of 1985" is mentioned.

Yeah. I read it last night and aside from a single character being set up in the Marvel Universe, I'm not seeing much of a connection either.

Not just that character being set in the MarvelU, but also the apparent ability of ANOTHER character to influence things that happen in the MarvelU.

Good point. But it does seem like a deus ex machina kind of plot device and one I'd rather not see used again.

I read the first issue to try it out, I and enjoyed it a lot. I will be ordering the hardcover this month.

so is this all done yet? did it turn out to be very good? soso? bleh? or what?

1985 was good. But the Old Man Logan story is set 50 years from now and might as well be told in real time given the long waits between issues.
