Fantastic Four: 17 Easter Eggs, In-Jokes And References You Need To See

14. The Flying Car

In their fifty-three years in print the Fantastic Four have had some pretty crazy gadgets, but none has been so ubiquitous (in the early years at least) as the Fantasticar - a humorously named flying car. It's a little bit out there for a modern, gritty take on the quartet, so (shockingly) no version of the car (no, not even the flying bathtub) appears. But that doesn't mean it isn't referenced - when giving his presentation at school, Reed is asked if he's still trying to make the flying car work, to which he replies "I'm not working on that anymore". Comic literate and meta.
