In my eyes, this version of the Fantastic Four is the best overall. Number one, all the voices are great except for Doctor Doom... he's not really scary enough. But Reed and all the gang have their ultimate voices here, especially Reed and Ben! Even the Mole Man has a cool voice.

In the Silver Surfer/Galactus episode, they captured the essence of both characters far better than the 90's cartoon did in their telling of the tale (but they more than made up for it the following season). You get to see the Molecule Man, Super Skrull, and you KINDA get to see Namor... the other toon company had the rights for Namor's own series, so they actually replaced him with a Triton like character.

The animation may not look all that great, but the tone and mood are just like the classic comics that inspired them.

This cartoon was far better than "the New Fantastic Four" a.k.a. "the one without the Human Torch." This is probably due to the fact that Lee and Kirby had some involvement. My only beef is that Dr. Doom was a bit weak. There's an episode based on an issue with the Sub Mariner, but since his cartoon was done by another company, Namor was replaced by a green sea king named Triton (also the name of one of the Inhumans). Oddly enough, all the other characters remained intact. Kirby later helped Hanna-Barbarra by creating character designs for Thundarr the Barbarian.

Not only do you get three of Hong Kong's top action heroines in some very cool action sequences and death defying stunts with crazy koo-kachoo special effects, but you also get massively blatant copyright infringement as well. Since I'm in love with Michelle Yeoh, Anita Mui and Maggie Cheung, seeing them all in one flick is a super-treat. There's alot of funky wire-fu in this one and Maggie Cheung (who is extremely cute as the Thief Catcher, who whistles while she works) has a particularly funny scene as she takes care of some terrorists in close to the beginning. Michelle Yeoh is, as always, cool, calm, and kicking much buttock. Anita Mui plays her role in a rather regal manner, befitting a Wonder Woman. If you love to see women doin' the Fu, check out this flick, along with Wing Chun (with Michelle Yeoh).
