SDCC 2024 Souvenir Reveals the NYC of The Fantastic Four: First Steps

This year’s San Diego Comic-Con is now in the books — stay tuned here for more interviews and photoshoots! — but before we move on, there’s a little more to reveal about Marvel’s newly titled The Fantastic Four: First Steps. It comes via the fold-out fan given to attendees of Marvel’s Hall H panel, depicting the retro-future aesthetic of their universe’s alternate 1960s.

Fans for Fanboys (and Girls)

On one side, we get caricatures of each team member, and their role in the group:

It’s the other side, though, that reveals the real gold: a map of the Fantastic Four’s New York City, which includes an FF-designed clean power station, the Baxter building, and the launch pad for the Excelsior space rocket. Based on the concept reel shown at the panel, that’s the rocket that sent the quartet on their fated, cosmic-ray infused journey to superhero-dom.

See what you can see in the full image below:

It’s hard to miss the new Fantasticar, as well as the Flatiron building that, in another universe entirely, serves as the headquarters for The Boys. Ben Grimm’s Yancy Street also stands out, and Times square is looking a little different than the one we know. Until the concept reel shown in Hall H goes online, if indeed it ever does, this is our best look so far at the aesthetic of the movie and its world.

The Fantastic Four: First Steps stars Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards/Mr. Fantastic, Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm/Invisible Woman, Ebon Moss-Bachrach as Ben Grimm/The Thing, and Joseph Quinn as Johnny Storm/The Human Torch. Galactus (Ralph Ineson) — now known from the test footage to be comic-accurate in design — looks to be the major villain. The movie is scheduled to be released right around next year’s Comic-Con, on July 25th, Matt Shakman directs.
