History[]

Powers and Abilities[]

Powers[]

  • Plasticity: Mister Fantastic possesses the ability to convert the mass of his entire body into a highly malleable state at will. His body's respiration and circulatory systems function at these distorted extremes is as yet unknown. Mister Fantastic can alter his form in a matter of seconds, often much less (depending on the complexity of the shape), and revert to his normal humanoid shape within a similar time. The greater the distance he stretches or the more extended the size of the object he becomes, the weaker his overall strength becomes. Mister Fantastic's transformation to a malleable state is flexible and nearly instantaneous. If he was at his normal form and taken unaware by machine gun fire, his body would still absorb the bullets' impact through radical deformation. Mister Fantastic's skin is virtually impervious to laceration or punctures unless he willfully relaxes his controllable body over small areas of his body. Due to his great malleability and elasticity of his molecular structure, Mister Fantastic is able to absorb the impact of any type of man-made ballistic projectiles by deforming his body. As well as contain explosions, grapple, canopy, parachuting, gliding, cushioning, and form in a semi-liquid state.
