Based upon the Marvel Comics superhero team with the same name, "The Fantastic Four" debuted on ABC on September 9, 1967. Almost all of the show's episodes were straight adaptations from the original comics written by Stan Lee and drawn by Jack Kirby. When scientist Reed Richards; his wife, Sue Richards; her brother, Johnny Storm; and pilot Ben Grimm travel into outer space, they are bombarded by powerful cosmic rays. After crashing back on Earth, the group discovers that they now have super powers. Reed can stretch his body into any form, Sue can turn invisible, Johnny can control, manipulate, and burst into fire, and Ben became the rock-like powerful monster, the Thing. Together, they unite and become the Fantastic Four, saving the world from evil menaces like Dr. Doom, the Mole Man, and the Skrull Empire.
