Marvel is really going out of their way to ignore the Fantastic Four. I may have found the latest and strangest example of this in the Spider-Man Unlimited mobile game. One of the playable characters is the Bombastic Bag-Man, Spider-Man wearing an old FF costume and a paper bag on his head. The latest update of the game has removed the Fantastic Four logo from the costume. Found that to be pretty crazy. Marvel is really trying to scrub every mention of the FF out of every thing while FOX holds the film rights.

We can always get a variant cover with Peter's version of the Fantastic Four, (Him, Hulk, Ghost Rider and Logan)

It's... a very bizarre situation involving Fox.

Remember when Sparky Plugg, Hardcore Holly, Stevie Richards, and Steven Richards were the world's greatest comic team?

They want Fantastic Four to be in such poor shape that Fox loses or gives up the rights. They would do the same with X-Men, but they know it wouldn't work.
They don't hate the Fantastic Four at all. If anything, it's the opposite.

Marvel hates the Fantastic Four more then they hate marriage and women who won't stick their butts out in awkward positions combined.

They don't hate the Fantastic Four. It benefits them in no way to make it better though. If they get the rights back, they will put plenty of focus on them.

They're attempting to make people care less while Fox has the rights to the films.

This is why I want Marvel to get the film rights back. Of course I want to see a good FF movie, but beyond that I want to see the team teturn to prominence at Marvel Comics. To me, the Fantastic Four are Marvel Comics, and it's saddening to see them wiped out and all but erased over a corporate squabble.

What really gets to me is Marvel doesn't have Doctor Doom.
Edit: AND Silver Surfer.

And I don't know for sure but isn't the FF a pretty big part of Doctor Strange's story at some point?

They can't stand Miles Teller Me neither. I was rooting for JK Simmons to stuff him inside a kick drum in Whiplash

I've said this before, I'll say it again, even if Marvel gets the film rights to the Fantastic Four back there really isn't much they can do with them. Fan4stic left the Four and Dr. Doom toxic and even in an MCU movie I can't see people willing to give them a chance for another decade.
That being said, there are a lot of auxiliary characters tied up with the Fantastic Four's rights that I'd love to see Marvel get back. Galactus, Silver Surfer, the Skrulls, Uatu, Annihilus, etc. Marvel could really use these characters if they're gonna continue with any cosmic movies after Guardians of the Galaxy 2.

Marvel should start a group called Fourtune and it'll be an obvious ripoff of the Fantastic Four. then it'll have 5 members for some stupid reason.
