==Summary==
Reed Richards, better known as Mister Fantastic, is the leader of the Fantastic Four and the head of the Future Foundation. A nearly unparalleled scientist, he invited his colleagues Susan Storm, Johnny Storm, and Ben Grimm to test an experimental spacecraft of his own design as the government threatened to withdraw funding. Although their launch was successful, the ship's shielding was inadequate to protect the team from a sudden burst of cosmic radiation caused by a solar flare as they tried to enter hyperspace. This radiation mutated Richards, allowing him to stretch and elongate his body at will into nearly any shape he could imagine, with his friends suffering mutations of their own. Convinced that he ought to use his newfound powers for the good of humanity, he created the Fantastic Four, one of the world's first superhero teams.
He would later marry Susan and have two children, Franklin Richards and Valeria Richards.

He can also change his shape in mid-combat to react against the enemy's attacks or even counter them (i.e. turning into spikes). He can also change his size and volume at will to grow into massive proportions quickly, gaining a proportionate amount of strength in the process.
*Ricochet: Reed can curl himself into a ball and ricochet off hard surfaces into opponents at high speed. Reed can precisely calculate the angle in order to hit the enemy for certain.
*Suffocate: Reed can wrap his body around opponents, trapping and suffocating them.

*Reflect: Reed's body can stretch to absorb physical projectiles like bullets, then reflect them back at the attacker.
*Super Breath: By expanding his lungs, Reed can inhale a massive amount of air and blow it out with great force.

The Ultimate Nullifier constructed by Mister Fantastic is likely not remotely comparable to the scale of the real Nullifier, and keep in mind Reed doesn't always carry the Ultimate Nullifier
