10 Most Powerful Incarnations Of The Fantastic Four
6. The Fantastic Five
When Sue Storm and Reed Richards were injured doing their usual inter-dimensional superhero activities, Johnny Storm stepped up to the role of Fantastic Four leader. Along with a new leader, the team included Johnny's then-wife, Lyja the Skrull, and Red Richards' son, Franklin.
This change gave the team an interesting boost in strength as Lyja has all the powers of a usual Skrull along with some extreme enhancements, such as creating forcefields like Sue Storm and being able to shoot energy blasts.
As for Franklin Richards... well, any Marvel fan will probably tell you just how powerful this kid is. Being a beyond Omega Level Mutant (until a recent, tragic retcon), Franklin Richards had the ability to manipulate reality and the very molecules of the universe, along with all the usual overpowered super skills like telepathy, telekinesis, energy blasts, and astral projection.
Though this team shakeup is not the most drastic of changes the Fantastic Four has undergone, the new additions to the team are still some of the most powerful beings in the Marvel Universe, and putting Johnny Storm in charge of the Fantastic Four overall feels like a natural progression for the beloved family team.
