So how many monsters have threatening reach?

One of the things about 4e that's different is monsters have to have the old threatening reach feat in order to make the AoO.

In a quick glance though, I didn't see any with it.

Which ones have it and have you houseruled others to have it?

Or am I just reading that whole thing wrong?

Doing a quick search on the Compendium gives me 48 creatures with threatening reach.

This includes RPGA and adventures.

If you cut down to just rulebooks, there are 17 creatures that have threatening reach.
 

Warthorn Battlebriar
Earthrage Battlebriar
Boneclaw
Enormous Carrion Crawler
Displacer Beast
Displacer Beast Packlord
Fen Hydra
Mordant Hydra
Primordial Hydra
Salamander Noble
War Troll

One can never be too sure. Why don't you try getting close to all of them and get back to us on that? (The feral trolls want me to reassure you that their reach is safe and you should try them first.)
