Fantastic Four (TV series)/Tropes


 * Adaptational Angst Dowmgrade: Zigzagged. While the Thing still angsts due to his mutation, is less due to his appearance and more due to other downsides to his new form.
 * Mytholgy Gag:
 * To the 2005 film:
 * As in the film, Ben is outsode the ship when they are hit by cosmic rays.
 * The line "If having superpowers is a disease, then we got it bad" fro the film is once again uttered by Johnny.
 * The first place the Four search for a cure is Monster Island, where the team traveled in their first issue.
 * Reconstruction: Sue's ability to turn invisoble is often deemed as not-so-useful. However, the series shows that, with the proper skills, she can actually be the scariest member of the team because you never see who you are fighting against.
 * Reed Richards Is Useless: Averted. Reed is shown many times giving his invemtions to the public, and the changes they produce are slow,y reflected througth the series.
