Fantastic Four’s Most Extreme Redesign Solves the Mystery of Their Powers

The Fantastic Four gained their abilities through a freak accident during a space excursion planned by Reed Richards. However, the nature of their powers has always been somewhat of a mystery, as it permanently altered them in a way that could neither be fully explained nor reversed (much to the Thing’s dismay). Marvel’s Timeslip universe brings clarity to the nature of their powers, quite literally, as they each call upon and control their own specific element and work together to save the world.
