The Fantastic Four's Most Creative Plans to Save the Day
The Fantastic Four are known for their inventive and unusual solutions when facing threats. They constantly push the limits to protect Earth from extraordinary dangers.
Dealing with the Skrulls
Early in their career, the team faced the Skrulls, shape-shifting aliens aiming to invade Earth. These impostors disguised themselves as the Fantastic Four to cause chaos and ruin the heroes' reputation in FANTASTIC FOUR (1961) #2, created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby.
Reed Richards cleverly halted the invasion by convincing the Skrulls that Earth was inhabited by giant monsters, using photos he had taken from comic books. Despite this, some Skrulls stayed behind on Earth.
In an unorthodox move, Reed transformed the remaining Skrulls into cows and manipulated their minds to believe they were ordinary cattle. Unintendedly, some of these Skrull-cows entered the food market as milk and beef.
