I'd give this a 3.5 if I could -- I tilted towards the high end to balance out some of the overly negative reviews from other readers.
I agree this isn't the greatest story arc for the Ultimate FF, but it was okay. This volume collects issues #33-38 of the series, which comprised a stylish if somewhat muddled space opera featuring remodeled versions of Marvel's cosmic big baddie, Thanos and Ronan The Accuser (formerly a Kree super-cop, here the equally uninvolving son of Thanos).

Wow, no love for the God War from Amazon's reviewers.
I found both the art and the writing to be a welcome change from the previous team on Ultimate Fantastic Four. Pascal Ferry is a wonderful, expressive artist with a distinctive style that's reminiscent of classic European sci-fi comics (e.g. Moebius) while still displaying his own unique style.
Mike Carey's story, while a bit complex, and loaded down with new characters, is still an enjoyable and rewarding read. With Seed ... Read More

This volume introduces the new creative team of Mike Carey and Pasqual Ferry. Although I've enjoyed much of Carey's work ("X-Men," "Lucifer"), the storyline here introduces new characters at breakneck speed and ends up as a confusing mess. Also, what began as a more realistic take on the Fantastic Four mythos has devolved here into cheese on a cosmic scale. Pasqual Ferry's artwork looks like animation cells from a television cartoon--a big change of pace from previous artists such as Jae Lee. This book ... Read More

It's been a good run with the Ultimate Fantastic Four, but volume seven of the collected series, "God War," takes a stumble.
Despite the appearance of writer Mike Carey at the helm, this book suffers from an overabundance of new characters and new situations that leave a reader feeling both overwhelmed and underwhelmed at the same time -- which is a pretty neat trick, when you think about it. Overwhelming is the sheer number of new characters that are thrown at Our Heroes in an overused plot ... Read More
