He is the inventor of the spacecraft which was bombarded by cosmic radiation on its maiden voyage, granting the Fantastic Four their powers. Richards gained the ability to stretch his body into any shape he desires.

* The first single "'''Now or Never'''", performed by the [[High School Musical 3]] cast premiered on [[Radio Disney]] on July 11, 2008. The album version was released on [[iTunes]] on September 2, 2008. A preview of its use in the movie, along with clips of the movie premiered on [[Disney Channel]] on July 30, 2008. It features the East High Wildcats vs. West High Knights basketball championship game.
He is the leader of the Fantastic Four, although his methodical manner sometimes makes him seem cold and distant to his teammates, particularly best friend the [[Thing (comics)|Thing]], who somewhat blames Richards for his transformation into a large, rocky creature. Whenever he is confronted with a scientific challenge, his attention can be so focused that he can neglect even his own family which has caused marital problems between him and Sue and has put his family in danger on rare occasions. He is, however, the husband of [[Invisible Woman|Susan Storm]], father of son [[Franklin Richards]] and daughter [[Valeria Richards]], and mentor of his brother-in-law, the [[Human Torch]]. According to ''[[BusinessWeek]]'', Mr. Fantastic is listed as one of the top ten most intelligent fictional characters in American comics.<ref>{{cite web | last = Pisani | first = Joseph | authorlink = Joseph Pisani | title = The Smartest Superheroes | publisher = www.businessweek.com | date = 2006 | url = http://images.businessweek.com/ss/06/05/smart_heroes/index_01.htm | accessdate = 2007-11-25}}</ref>

==Fictional character biography==
===Pre-Fantastic Four===
Born in [[Central City, California]], Reed is the son of Evelyn and [[Nathaniel Richards]]. Nathaniel was a scientific genius, and Reed inherited the same level of intellect. A [[child prodigy]] with special aptitude in [[mathematics]], [[physics]], and [[mechanical engineering|mechanics]], Reed Richards had enrolled in college by the time he was fourteen, attending such prestigious universities as the [[Massachusetts Institute of Technology]], [[California Institute of Technology]], [[Harvard University]], [[Columbia University]], and the fictional [[State University (Marvel Comics)|State University]]. By the tender age of twenty, he had several degrees in the sciences under his belt.


* The fourth single, "'''Right Here, Right Now'''", performed by [[Zac Efron]] and [[Vanessa Hudgens]] premiered on Radio Disney on October 10, 2008 and is scheduled to be released on iTunes on October 14, 2008.
It was at State University (not to be confused with [[Empire State University]]) that he met and became the roommate of [[Thing (comics)|Benjamin J. Grimm]].<ref name="mnyc">{{cite book | last = Sanderson | first = Peter | authorlink = | coauthors = | title = The Marvel Comics Guide to New York City | publisher = [[Pocket Books]] | date = 2007 | location = New York City | pages = 30-33 | url = | doi = | id = | isbn = 1-14653-141-6}}</ref> Reed had already begun designing a starship capable of traveling in hyperspace. Sharing his plans with his new roommate, Grimm jokingly volunteered to pilot the craft.


* The song "'''Can I Have This Dance'''", performed by Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens, is a promotional single. If a ticket for the movie is purchased, then the buyer can download the song on iTunes. Previously, the song was released as a single on iTunes but was later removed.
When 19-year old Reed continued his education by attending Columbia University in Manhattan, he rented a room in a boarding house owned by the aunt of a young girl named [[Invisible Woman|Susan Storm]]. To his embarrassment, the girl, who was 13, instantly fell in love with him. Even though Reed had to move on, they continued to carry a torch for each other. Also while at Columbia, he met a brilliant fellow student, [[Doctor Doom|Victor Von Doom]]. In Richards, Doom had met the first person who could rival him intellectually; regarding Richards as his ultimate rival, Doom became increasingly jealous of Richards. Determined to prove he was better, Doom conducted reckless experiments which eventually scarred his face and would lead him to become [[Doctor Doom]].


[[Radio Disney]] will be premiering the soundtrack in its entirety on [[October 18]], [[2008]].
Moving on to Harvard, Reed earned [[Ph.D.]]s in both [[physics]] and [[electrical engineering]] while working as a military scientist, all this by the age of 22. He also worked in communications for the army. Three years later, now in his mid-twenties, Reed then began using his inheritance, along with government funding, to finance his research. Determined to reach the instellar regions of [[Mars]] and beyond, the fateful project began, based in Central City. Susan Storm, now a young adult, moved into the area and within a short time, found herself engaged to Reed. Due to her family's lucrative savings and involvement in charitable foundations, she provided more funding when his money ran out. Likewise, Reed's old college roommate, Ben Grimm, had gone on to become a successful test pilot and astronaut and was indeed slated to pilot the craft.


===Chart Performance===
All seemed well; however, when the government threatened to cut funding and cancel the project, Reed, Ben, Sue and her younger brother [[Human Torch (Johnny Storm)|Johnny]], all decided to sneak aboard the starship and take it up immediately. They knew they had not completed all the testing that had been planned, but Reed was confident they would be safe. Ben was initially skeptical about the unknown affects of the radiation levels, which Reed theorized that their ship's shielding would be adequate and protect them.

==Track listing==
It was on Reed's initiative that the fateful mission which had [[Invisible Woman|Susan Storm]], [[Human Torch (Johnny Storm)|Johnny Storm]] and [[Thing (comics)|Ben Grimm]] accompanying him into space took place. When their ship passed through the [[Van Allen belt]] they found their cockpit bombarded with nearly lethal doses of [[cosmic radiation]]. Reed had somehow neglected to account for the abnormal radiation levels in the atmosphere. The cosmic rays wreaked havoc on the starship's insufficient shielding and they were forced to return to Earth immediately. When they crash-landed they found that their bodies were changed dramatically. Reed found that his entire body was elastic and that he could reshape any portion of his body at will. It was at Mister Fantastic's suggestion that they decided to use their new abilities to serve mankind as the Fantastic Four. Mr. Fantastic was chosen to lead the group.<ref>''Fantastic Four'' #1</ref> He later told [[Valeria Von Doom|his daughter]], by way of a [[bedtime story]], that the reason he suggested they become adventurers and gave them such outlandish costumes and names as "Mister Fantastic" and "[[Thing (comics)|The Thing]]" was that he knew they would likely be hated and feared for their powers without such an over-the-top public image.

This history has been changed over the years in order to keep it current. In the original comics, Richards was a veteran of World War II who had served behind enemy lines in occupied France, and the goal of his space mission was a manned space flight to the regions of Mars [[Space race|before the Communists were able to]]. This was later changed to getting there before the [[Red China|Chinese Communists]] and to explore the instellar areas of the red planet and beyond. Also, in the earlier stories, Reed was said to have met Susan when he was 23 and she was 12, but this has been retconned to a six year age difference.

As the team leader, Mr. Fantastic created numerous exotic devices and vehicles for the team to use such as [[clothing]] made of '[[unstable molecules]]' so that it can be used with their powers safely. Furthermore, he often leads the team into daring expeditions such as into the [[Negative Zone]] in addition to opposing evil. Also, he has felt personally responsible for Ben Grimm's grotesque change and has labored off and on to reverse it permanently.

==International Version(s)==
Under his guidance, the team went on to become Earth's most celebrated band of heroes. Together, they would save the world countless times. Ever driven by his quest for knowledge, Reed is believed by most to be the Earth's foremost intelligence. There is little he cannot create, fix, or understand given time. The patents and royalties on his inventions alone have funded the group over the years.


{| class="wikitable"
However, there are drawbacks to his association with the team. Chief among them is the team's violent encounters with [[Doctor Doom]], who believes that Reed was responsible for the accident that scarred him. Doom has never forgiven Reed and has sworn revenge. Doom has even gone as far as transforming Reed into a monstrous freak, attacking Reed's children and attempting to seduce Sue.

In the course of fighting an alien called Hunger, [[Doctor Doom]] was seriously injured. The Fantastic Four were also part of the battle against Hunger and Doom asked for his old enemy to take his hand. At that point they both disappeared in a flash, leaving nothing but ashes. It would appear as if the two sworn enemies had fittingly died in each others' hands.

However, unknown to anyone else at the time, Reed and Doom had actually been thrown back into the time of barbarians and onto an alien world by a being called [[Hyperstorm]], Reed's grandchild from an alternate future, the child of Franklin Richards and [[Rachel Summers]], daughter of [[Scott Summers]] and [[Jean Grey]]. They were so far into the past, and with no technology, that even their brilliant minds couldn't find a way back home. Doom was captured and held prisoner by Hyperstorm. Reed wandered aimlessly for about a year.

Meanwhile the rest of the FF recruited [[Ant-Man (Scott Lang)|Scott Lang]] as scientific advisor. They even confronted an insane alternative version of Reed called the Dark Raider who was traveling from reality to reality, destroying all the various versions of himself.
|-

|-
A while later, the remaining members of the FF along with the [[Sub-Mariner]], [[Lyja]] and [[Kristoff Vernard]] found themselves trapped in the same era as their Reed and Doom. They found Reed but faced a new problem: during his time alone, Reed had resigned himself to the reality that it was impossible for his old friends to stage a rescue and attacked them but soon realized that these truly were his friends. After returning to their own time period, he sought out [[Galactus]] as he was the only being in the Universe who could defeat Hyperstorm. Upon Hyperstorm's defeat at the hands of Galactus, the FF returned to the present day where they continued their lives, not only as a team, but as a family.

Shortly after their return, the FF were confronted by a being called [[Onslaught (comics)|Onslaught]]. Onslaught took control of an army of [[Sentinels (comics)|Sentinels]] and invaded [[New York City]], hunting down every mutant being he could find. Onslaught wished to add the abilities of the godlike Franklin Richards to his own. Only through the apparent sacrifice of the Fantastic Four's own lives and that of many of the heroes in the Marvel universe was Onslaught finally vanquished. The heroes would have died then and there if not for Franklin, who created an alternate reality for them to reside in. Completely oblivious to what had taken place, Reed and his compatriots relived most of their lives. In their absence the Fantastic Four's headquarters, [[Four Freedoms Plaza]], was annihilated by a super villain group called the [[Masters of Evil]], posing as heroes, [[Thunderbolts (comics)|The Thunderbolts]]. One year later, Franklin returned with his family along with the other heroes from the parallel reality. Reed was overjoyed to see his son again, but he and the rest of the FF found themselves without a home, moving into Reed's storage warehouse on Pier 4, overlooking the East River. Making this their home, the Fantastic Four continued with their lives, eventually managing to move back into the Baxter Building.

In Marvel's [[Civil War (comics)|Civil War]] miniseries and [[fictional crossover|crossover]] event, Reed Richards is one of the leading figures, along with Iron Man, on the side which is in favor of the [[Registration Acts (comics)|Superhuman Registration Act]].

After being escorted to and from the prison by [[Iron Man (comics)|Iron Man]], Parker returns with more doubts than ever about whether he is on the right side and asks Reed why he supports the Superhuman Registration Act, a question Reed answers by telling the story of his paternal [[uncle]], Ted. A professional writer, Reed remembers his uncle as "funny", "colorful" and "accepting." As a boy, Reed loved spending time with Ted. Unfortunately, Ted was also "an eccentric" and "stubborn." Because he had a career in the arts and because he stood out, Ted was called before [[HUAC]], imprisoned on [[contempt of Congress]] charges for six months, and was unable to find work after he'd served his sentence. He was even shunned by Reed's father. Ted lost everything, which Reed says finally "killed him" without going into greater detail. Richards opines that his uncle was wrong to take such a stand, to pick a fight he couldn't win, and to fail to respect the law.

|-
However ''Fantastic Four'' #542 reveals that the real reason for supporting the registration act is due to his development of a working version of [[Isaac Asimov|Isaac Asimov's]] fictional [[Psychohistory (fictional)|psychohistory]] concept. His application of this science indicates to him that billions will die in escalating conflicts without the presence of the act. In the final battle of the war, he is shot by [[Taskmaster]], saving Sue Storm's life. With Reed on the brink of death, a furious Susan decimates Taskmaster with a telekinetic field. Reed survives, however, and Sue returns to him in the aftermath of the battle, having been granted amnesty. Seeking to repair the damage done to their marriage as a result of the war, Sue and Reed take time off from the Fantastic Four, but ask [[Storm (Marvel Comics)|Storm]] and the [[Black Panther (comics)|Black Panther]] to take their places in the meantime.

===World War Hulk===
|align="center"|[[Malaysia]]||rowspan="1" align="center"|October 24, 2008
Within the midst of Civil War, Reed Richards learned from a brief conversation with [[Mastermind Excello]] that the Hulk isn't on the planet where the Illuminati had intended to exile him. After a conversation over the good the Hulk has done for humanity, Reed tells Iron Man of what happened to the Hulk and also states that the Hulk has friends and ''"may God help us if they find him before we do."''

Within the aftermath of Civil War, Reed Richards had been keeping tabs on Mastermind Excello and when the [[She-Hulk]] found out about the Hulk's exile, Reed Richards sends out [[Doctor Samson|Doc Samson]] to confront her when he sees her meeting with Mastermind Excello.

In issue #1 of [[World War Hulk]], Reed is shown with Tony Stark, as Iron Man. Both men were trying to convince the [[Sentry (Robert Reynolds)|Sentry]] into fighting the Hulk, thinking that the calm aura that the Sentry produces may be able to stop the Hulk's rampage.
|-

|align="center"|[[Denmark]]
In issue #2 of ''World War Hulk'', with the aid of the rest of the Fantastic Four, Storm, and the Black Panther, Reed was able to create a machine that projects an image of the Sentry and recreates the hero's aura of calm. He uses the machine on the Hulk just as he is about to defeat the Thing, but the Hulk knows that that wasn't the real Sentry and destroys the machine. In a last line of defense, Sue Storm tries to protect her husband by encapsulating Bruce in an energy field while pleading with him to spare Reed. The Hulk doesn't listen and is able to easily exert enough strength against her force field to cause Susan to collapse and experience a nosebleed from the stress, before she dooms Reed to the Hulk's wrath.

He is later seen among the various heroes that the Hulk defeated so far, within the depths of the Hulk's Gladiator arena located within Madison Square Garden. He and all of the Heroes are implanted with "obedience disks" that are used to suppress their powers. These disks are the same that were used upon the Hulk during his time on Sakaar. With the disks Hulk orders Iron Man and Mr. Fantastic to face off in battle. Richards, after having the upper hand on Stark is then given the thumbs down by Hulk to kill him.

However the Hulk spares their lives, showing them that he proved his point to the world. They survived the encounter by Hulk's mercy and the timely invention of the Sentry, who weakens Hulk enough for Stark to use prototype defense satellites to negate the Hulk's powers. The Illuminati are partially cleared from the responsibility of Sakaar's destruction when [[Miek]], one of the Hulk's alien allies, admits he saw the Red King forces breach the ship's warp core. Miek kept quiet to initiate what he felt was Hulk's destiny as the "Worldbreaker"<ref>''World War Hulk'' #5</ref>.

===[[Secret Invasion]]===

Mister Fantastic was at the Illuminati's meeting discussing the threat of the Skrulls when the Black Bolt with them was revealed to be a Skrull in disguise.

Mister Fantastic and Hank Pym autopsy the body of the Skrull who impersonated Elektra (with Reed pretending to be seeing the corpse for the first time, thus keeping the secret of the Illuminati). After completing the dissection, Reed claims to have discovered the secret of how the Skrulls have been able to conceal their identities. Before he can elaborate, "[[Hank Pym]]" reveals himself to be a Skrull and shoots Richards with a weapon that violently leaves his elastic body in a state of chaotic disarray similar to [[Silly String]]<ref>''Secret Invasion'' #1</ref>. In Secret Invasion: Fantastic Four #1, it's shown that a Skrull assumed Reed's form in order to successfully ambush and capture Sue Richards, to facilitate an attack on the Fantastic Four's headquarters.

A conscious but still mostly shapeless Reed Richards is seen being forcibly stretched in all directions to cover the floor of a medium-sized arena aboard a Skrull ship, with all of the seats filled by Skrull onlookers.<ref>''Secret Invasion'' #4</ref> He is freed by [[Abigail Brand]], and then travels with her to the [[Savage Land]], and uses a device to reveal all the Skrull invaders present.<ref>''Secret Invasion'' #5</ref>. After helping the Avengers to defeat the imposters and return to New York, Reed aids the heroes and villains of Earth in their battle against the Skrulls.<ref>''Secret Invasion'' #6</ref>

==Powers and abilities==
Reed Richards gained the power of [[List of comic book superpowers#Elasticity|elasticity]] from irradiation by cosmic rays. In [[Neil Gaiman]]'s ''[[Marvel 1602]]'' Richards' power is associated with the [[classical element]] of [[water]]. The association between him and the element of water was also referenced in ''[[Heroes Reborn]] Fantastic Four'', ''X4: X-Men and Fantastic Four'', ''[[Ultimate Fantastic Four]],'' ''Fantastic Four'' #232 <!-- only denote volume number after first -->, and in the ''[[Marvel Boy]]'' and ''Fantastic Four 1234'' [[mini-series]] by [[Grant Morrison]].
He has the ability to convert his entire body into a highly malleable state at will, allowing him to stretch, deform, and reform himself into virtually any shape. Reed Richards has been observed as being able to utilize his stretching form in a variety of offensive and defensive manners, such as compressing himself into a ball and ricocheting into enemies or flattening himself into a trampoline or a parachute to rescue a teammate. He can squeeze through openings sometimes even as small as one molecule's breadth. He can twist or reshape his body or stretch roughly three miles fully extended before physical pain. He can flatten himself to the thickness of a sheet of [[vellum]]. Due to Reed's distaste for violence, he will usually wrap an opponent up in his body to attempt to control and compromise with them. To trap an opponent, he can also flatten his body and smother his opponent until they give in. Other applications of his powers include expanding his lungs allowing him to hold his breath longer, adjusting the distance between his cornea and retina to allow for natural ocular magnification, and in at least one case shortening the distance between the synapses in his brain allowing him to process thought at impossible speeds. He has also shown that he can stretch his brain, cerebellum, as to facilitate operation of Cerebro, the mutant finding computer devised by Professor [[Professor X|Charles Xavier]].

Because of his elastic nature, Mr. Fantastic cannot be harmed by traditional bullets or most other projectile weapons, including knives, missiles, darts, etc, and has superhuman durability. He can often cause projectiles to rebound back towards the attacker. Despite this, Reed is not completely invulnerable. His skin has been cut at least once by an evolved form of a [[Brood (comics)|Brood]] queen; while reaching into a direct hole to Hell created by Elizabeth Cromwell, a random [[demon]] reached out and inexplicably broke his arm; and on occasion if he suffers a large amount of head trauma he'll lose consciousness. He has also shown to have all the weaknesses of rubber, as he melts and weakens when exposed to extreme heat and will freeze and crack when exposed to super-cool temperatures. He has also occasionally demonstrated other applications of this molecular control. While imprisoned by [[Psycho-Man]], meditation allowed him to reduce his body to a nearly liquid state in order to flow out of a glass encasement specially prepared by the villain to have only the most infinitesimal of openings.

Reed's elasticity makes it extremely difficult for attackers to hold or pin him, as his body can become slippery or so thin that he can slip out of a grasping fist. However, Reed is vulnerable to types of [[energy weapons]], and even to taffy-puller-style machines that forcibly stretch him to the limits of his tensile durability eventually causing physical pain, as well as the temporary loss of his solid state due to the mental stress.

Reed can alter his physical makeup as well. He can, for instance, disguise his appearance to mimic another person, an inanimate object, or even, in one case, mimic the physical form of an [[Extraterrestrial life|extra-terrestrial]]. He can also concentrate his mass into a single body part, such as when he enlarges a fist into a solid hammer or mace-style weapon. All of these feats require extreme concentration but thanks to his training, and mental discipline, they can be performed rather quickly. On one occasion, he increased his entire body's size and mass, bulking his body to [[Thing (comics)|"Thing"]]-like proportions while increasing his strength as well.

Despite this, Richards' strength comes more from the powers of his mind than the powers of his body; indeed, he once told [[Spider-Man]] that he considers his stretching powers to be expendable compared to his intellect.<ref>''[[Marvel Team-Up]]''#132</ref> Reed Richards is a visionary [[theoretician]] and inspired [[inventor|machine smith]] who has made breakthroughs in such varied fields as [[Spaceflight|space travel]], [[time travel]], [[hyperspace (science fiction)|extra-dimensional travel]], [[biochemistry]], [[robotics]], [[computer]]s, [[synthetic polymer]]s, [[communication]]s, [[mutation]]s, [[transportation]], [[holography]], [[energy development|energy generation]], [[spectral analysis]] and more. Richards has earned Ph.D.s in mathematics, physics, and engineering. Dr. Richards is often known to rewrite works of [[Stephen Hawking]] and decode alien [[languages]]. He is considered by many in the scientific community to be the greatest intellect on earth (much to [[Doctor Doom]]'s consternation). Not only has Reed proven himself to be a genius in virtually every science native to Earth, he has shown himself to be more knowledgeable than even some of the most highly advanced alien civilizations in the known universe as well. Reed's patents are so valuable that he is able to bankroll the Fantastic Four, Inc., without any undue financial stress. Some writers have shown that Reed's intelligence was expanded by the cosmic rays that gave him his elastic powers, and that, when his powers are nullified, he is not as hyper-intelligent (at times barely keeping up with [[Doctor Doom]]). [[Mind control]] is rarely effective on him and when it does work, it wears off sooner than it would a normal person, due to what he describes as an "elastic consciousness".

Mr. Fantastic is, however, not without flaws. The accident that resulted in the Fantastic Four gaining their powers was the direct result of a hasty miscalculation on Reed's part. For years he has tried to restore The Thing to his human form, but a permanent solution has eluded him. He has admitted, on more than one occasion, to being incapable of understanding [[Magic (paranormal)|magic]], as he cannot begin to fathom an aspect of science (as he calls it) that is "not based in quantifiable laws and rules". He has, however, utilized simple magic spells.<ref>''Fantastic Four #500''</ref> He learned to let go of his ego and admit he did not actually understand magic, but that it does exist. (This is generally thought to be the only advantage that [[Doctor Doom]] has over Reed in as much as he has successfully joined the science with magic.)

Reed has also admitted to not having the same kind of specialist knowledge as his peers, though such occasions are, admittedly, rare and generally reflect a lack of experience in a specific narrow field or application rather than a lack of ability. On such occasions, he shows no hesitation in bringing in an expert to consult.

==Equipment and technology==
[[Image:Reed1.jpg|thumb|300px|Reed, alongside his son Franklin and the Human Torch working on the Fantasticar in the FF's Antarctic base, after returning from an interstellar adventure. (Fantastic Four vol 3 #1).]]Although the Fantastic Four have numerous devices, crafts, and weapons, there are some items that Reed Richards carries with him at all times.

'''Fantastiflare''': Launches a fiery "4" into the sky that is used during combat situations to let other members of the group know their location.

'''Uniform Computer''': Like all the Fantastic Four's costumes and the rest of Reed's wardrobe, his suit is made of "unstable molecules". This means that the suit is attuned to his powers, which is why Johnny's costume doesn't burn when he "flames on", Sue's costume turns invisible when she does, and Reed's costume stretches with him. The costume also insulates them from electrical assaults. In addition, the team's uniforms are also, in essence, wearable computers. Their costumes have a complete [[data processing]] and [[telemetry]] system woven into the material of the uniform on a molecular level. This forms a network with the entire team, providing a constant, real-time uplink of everyone's physical condition as well as their location and current situation. The suit is capable of displaying data and touch-pad controls on the gauntlets. Its sensors can track all of the team's uniforms and provide a picture of their immediate vicinity. The suit has an intricate scanner system which can detect things around the wearer, from how many people are in the next room to what dimension or planet they are on. Reed can also up-link the bodysuit to any computer by stretching his fingertips to filament size and plugging them in to an I/O data-port. With this, Reed can establish a fairly comprehensive [[database]] of any computer's [[cybernetic]] protocols and [[encryption]] algorithms.

===Film ===
Most recently, Mr. Fantastic has been played by actor [[Ioan Gruffudd]] in the [[2005 in film|2005]] film [[Fantastic Four (2005 movie)|''Fantastic Four'']] and its [[2007 in film|2007]] sequel ''[[Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer]]'', alongside [[Jessica Alba]] as Invisible Woman, [[Michael Chiklis]] as the Thing, and [[Chris Evans (actor)|Chris Evans]] as the Human Torch, and [[Julian McMahon]] as Doctor Doom. Both movies were directed by [[Tim Story]]. In the film continuity, Reed Richards is, initially, a brilliant but timid and pedantic scientist who, despite his genius-level understanding of the sciences and being (as he is described in the second film) "one of the 21st century's finest minds", is fiscally incompetent and nearing bankruptcy, forcing him to seek investment from [[Victor von Doom]] (in the film continuity a rival scientist and successful businessman) to further his projects. While the film continuity roughly follows the original comic storyline as to how Richards and the other members of the team received their superpowers, certain changes were made: in particular, Von Doom was a member of the expedition and received his powers at the same time as the Four, and Reed and [[Invisible Woman|Susan Storm]] were ex-lovers with, initially, an acrimonious relationship with one another. Richards works diligently on a cure, feeling responsible for Grimm's deformity, and gradually takes to his role as leader of the Four, while proposing to Susan in the end. In this film, his body is shown to obey the physical laws of rubber.

By the events of ''Rise of the Silver Surfer'', Richards is, along with his teammates, an internationally recognized superhero and [[celebrity]]. Reed and Sue are now engaged, although Reed has trouble keeping himself from being distracted from his imminent wedding (which is established as the fifth attempt they have made). Both Reed and Sue contemplate abandoning their chaotic and heavily scrutinized lives as superheroes in order to provide a normal life to raise a family. However, the military enlist his help in order to track down the [[Silver Surfer]], who creates craters around the world for his master, [[Galactus]], to absorb all sentient life and annihilate Earth as with previous planets. Reed is forced to cooperate with a revived Victor Von Doom to accomplish this, and eventually battles Doom along with the rest of the Fantastic Four and the Surfer when Doom seizes the Surfer's board for his own purposes. Deciding to remain superheroes, Reed and Sue are eventually married in a small ceremony in Japan at the end of the film, moments before jetting off with Ben and Johnny to again save the world.

===Video games===
* Mr. Fantastic is a playable character in the ''[[Fantastic Four (PlayStation game)|Fantastic Four]]'' [[Playstation]] game

* Reed is mentioned in ''[[Marvel Nemesis: Rise of the Imperfects]]''.

* Mister Fantastic appears as a playable character in''[[Marvel: Ultimate Alliance]]'' voiced by [[David Naughton (actor)|David Naughton]].

* Mister Fantastic appears in the ''[[Fantastic Four (2005 video game)|Fantastic Four video game]]'' based on the 2005 film, and the [[Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer (video game)|''Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer'' video game]] based on the film.

==Popular culture==
* In a ''[[Saturday Night Live]]'' segment called "Superman's Funeral," Mister Fantastic was one of the attendees.{{Fact|date=October 2008}}

* A [[parody]] of Mr. Fantastic is shown on the Adult Swim cartoon, ''[[The Venture Brothers]].'' The show features a character named Professor Richard Impossible (voiced by comedian [[Stephen Colbert]]), who despite attaining the same powers as Mr. Fantastic, his team the Impossibles all suffer ridiculous and disfiguring versions; his wife Sally has to concentrate to turn her skin visible (leaving her flesh/muscle visible), her cousin Ned is covered in a pink, fleshy exoskeleton and her brother Cody will burst into flame when exposed to oxygen, at the cost of it almost burning him to death. Richard himself is a neglectful father to his son (whom he suspects isn't his) and an abusive and controlling husband to Sally, who eventually leaves him when he decides that science is more important than his family.

* In a season 4 episode of ''[[Stargate Atlantis]]'', "[[Travelers (Stargate Atlantis)|Travelers]]" Lt Col [[John Sheppard (Stargate)|John Sheppard]] uses the alias Reed Richards when kidnapped.

* In the Simpsons [[Treehouse of Horror (series)|Treehouse of Horror]] episode titled "Stop the World, I Want to Goof Off!", There is a moment where the family is transformed to resemble members of the Fantastic Four. Bart is Mr. Fantastic.
