Reed Richards Explains how phones work

This is dedicated to my favourite invalid, who raised the question a few weeks and has been waiting for an answer ever since. The most surprising and delightful thing about this is that the basic principle of a telephone has not changed greatly in the last century. The Blackberry that you carry in your pocket works in almost the same way as the old candlestick telephones that your great grandparents would have used.

Again, an apology for the long, long wait between updates. There's a small clue in the last post that might explain why there's been so many delays since March.










Original material from Fantastic Four 576 by Jonathan Hickman and Dale Eaglesham. This section was largely unlettered, so it's needed me to make my own bubbles for Ben and Reed's conversation. It's also the first time since Id that I've written out a script first, then written in the boxes in a planned way.
