Fantastic 4: Visits from Goku and Galactus
It was a typical day in Four Freedoms Plaza. The famous New York skyscraper was home of the Fantastic Four as well as fifty floors worth of tenants with rent controlled leases who were not about to give up their Madison Avenue apartments for anything, including Dr. Doom. The tenants were oblivious to what was happening on the top half of the building, though most rightly suspected whatever it was, it was something dangerous and highly likely to end in structural damage to the building and/or whatever aliens or meta-humans were up there with Reed Richards.
Being a typical day, Reed (aka Mr. Fantastic) was tinkering with an impossibly complex device with improbable functions related to the existence of the universe. Ben Grimm, the quasi-orange hulk of a Thing with skin the texture of rock and a composition even more dense and durable than stone was dealing the results. That meant he was trying to clobber the wispy entities swarming around the lab wrecking equipment, but not having much luck with the insubstantial creatures. Sue Storm-Richards, also known as the Invisible Woman, was keeping the creatures at bay by erecting invisible force fields. Her brother, Johnny Storm, was generally ignoring the chaos while he watched cartoons.
"Johnny! Do you want to help, or are you just going to sit there?" asked an exasperated Invisible Woman. Considering that she was perfectly visible and her soft blond hair, beautiful features, and form fitting costume would draw the attention of pretty much any male but her brother, "invisible" was not exactly the right word for her just then. However, she could have been invisible if she had wanted to be.
"I think I'll just sit here. I've only seen this episode of Dragonball Z half a dozen times, and it's a really good one!" came Johnny's half serious reply.
"JOHNNY!" Sue's demanded angrily.
"That's it flame head," came the Thing's gravely voice. "I'm smashing that TV and knocking some responsibility into you!"
"Aw come on, guys, it's not like we're dealing with Galactus or Doom or something," Johnny whined. But when Sue turned the television invisible he got up. "Alright, alright, I'm helping, I'm helping. FLAME ON!"
Instantly, Johnny Storm's entire body was converted to living flame. He burned in the air like a human torch, which was fitting since Human Torch was actually his name as a hero. Johnny targeted one of the entities flying around near some equipment and let loose a torrent of fire that... went right through the whatever it was and made Dr. Richard's instruments melt into a useless puddle of molten metal.
"Johnny!" yelled Mr. Fantastic as he stretched one of his arms out to use a fire extinguisher on the flaming metal, "Stop helping! Go watch TV or something." Mr. Fantastic's other hand was stretched to the other side of the room typing furiously on a keyboard while his neck was elongated so his head could observe the readouts from a monitor in another section.
Ben Grimm grimaced as he struck at one of the entities. His fist passed through the creature yet he felt the impact himself as if he had hit something solid. Sue worked with great concentration and intensity as she tried to contain the creatures who would slip partway through her barriers only to be drawn back in for awhile before eventually slipping completely away as she adjusted her force fields in a futile attempt to better contain them.
"How can we fight these things when they can be tangible and intangible at the same time? These things ain't exactly fighting fair, ya' know?" While Ben Grimm was nowhere near the same mental league as team leader Reed Richards, he was far from dull, having graduated from Empire State University and piloted for NASA.
Johnny Storm couldn't let the opportunity slip by. "They might be saying something similar about you there, 'Thing'," he quipped.
"Ok, this should do it," declared Mr. Fantastic. He turned off the power to one of the devices in his room. Instantly, the battle changed in favor of the Fantastic Four. Sue's force fields contained them without letting parts of them slip through while Thing was able to clobber them any time they tried to affect a physical object. They could still turn intangible, but could not do any harm in that state. In a few short minutes all the creatures were contained and Reed sent them back to the reality they had emerged from.
"It seems that the quantum field that powers the Multiversal Quantum Probability Scanner/Projector which brought those entities into the lab also projects the physical laws of the dimension or reality from which they came into our dimensional space. Even though the access portal to their dimension had been severed, the quantum ambient energy of the field generator served to blend their universe with ours." Reed stated all this matter-of-factly and as if everyone in the room had a perfect understanding of everything he had said.
"Translation, Susie, Stretch screwed up," Ben volunteered to Mr. Fantastic's wife. He was in a good mood now that things were dealt with in a "hands on" sort of way.
"Well, at least things will calm down a bit now," remarked the Human Torch. The sealed doors and security force fields to the lab dropped now that the emergency had been resolved. Then HERBIE announced that there was a visitor to building.
"Reed Richards," began the Silver Surfer, "Your world is in dire peril."
