Marvel's "Fantastic Four: First Steps" is the fourth attempt at making the Fantastic Four team work as a comic book movie. The film follows Reed Richards, Ben Grimm, Susan and Johnny Storm four years after their cosmic accident. Stretched to their limits, the team must work together on trying to save their home, even if Reed's calculations confirm there is no hope of survival.

Resident critic Carter Salley writes that this movie blew him away. Other attempts at a "Fantastic Four" film have been disappointing; but now that the characters are under the Marvel umbrella, the company has full control over their characters and it shows! The care and detail that are put into this movie are eye-popping and will leave you in awe.

The City of Mount Pleasant will soon be adding a new staff member whose core focus will be to spearhead the community’s climate change preparedness. That’s thanks to a 6-1 vote by city commissioners Monday to hire the inaugural sustainability coordinator. ⁠

The vote came on the same day that weather data showed high temperatures soared more than 10 degrees above normal here. ⁠

“The growing climate crisis is … one of the chief reasons I got involved in local government and running for office,” Mayor Boomer Wingard said. “How can we break down big issues and tackle them locally?⁠

“Building that in-house infrastructure for ourselves, I do like this direction.” ⁠
