Fantastic Four
Created in 1961 to compete in the Justice League of America, the Fantastic Four around the adventures of genius Reed Richards, his girlfriend Sue Storm, her brother Johnny, and friend Ben Grimm's ill-fated space mission. As a result of being affected by cosmic rays, the four began developing new skills. Reed could spread and began calling himself Mr. Fantastic, Sue can become invisible and therefore called himself the first Invisible Girl then the Invisible Woman, Johnny ability to turn your body into flame gave rise to the name of the Human Torch, Ben Grimm is turned into a huge rock of a creature called the Thing.
The Fantastic Four villains including good boy Golden Age Namor the Sub-Mariner, now re-imagined as a bitter ruler of Atlantis, and Doctor Doom their common enemy. Other enemies include the shape-shifting alien race of Skrulls, and the Mole Men. Galactus trilogy also provided the audience to eat the planet Galactus and his servant then, the Silver Surfer.
His first adventure marked a new era in comics, not only because their identities were public, but also because the Fantastic Four were the first superhero group discuss among themselves. Other groups, like the Justice League or Society of Justice, which has traditionally performed very polite to others at all times. Fantastic Four comics were about family members, and as any family of functions, intense arguments between members.
Creator Stan Lee explained thusly, "And the characters would be the type of characters I personally could relate to: be flesh and blood, who have their faults and weaknesses, to be fallible and feisty, and – most important of all – the colors inside their boots, suits still have had feet of clay. "
The animosity between the members has occasionally led his teammates quit and his replacement, the most notable example is when the She-Hulk recorded as a long-term replacement for the Thing. Tensions were especially tense during the time period in which Sue Storm developed a love of old enemy of the Sub-Mariner, Reed Richards so jealous.
Despite tensions, the Fantastic Four have always managed to repair themselves. Reed and Sue married and had two children. However, the Marvel Super-crossing events of the Civil War threatened to fracture the Fantastic Four permanently. After her husband's participation in the cloning of Thor, Sue Storm left the group and followed his brother, to join the anti-superhero Reed record against. Ben Grimm declined to take sides in the war that had separated from his family. Tellingly, farewell note Reed Sue to let her know how angry I was with him, but ended with a reminder that loved him and a plea of "please fix this problem."
After the Civil War, however, Reed and Sue met and his family began the healing process. While history says it is likely that future disputes, is also a good bet that the Fantastic Four when they are removed and remain whole.
