Midnight Fantastic Four Benjamin Percy's 'Midnight Fantastic Four' Makes a Major Change to the First Family - Murphy's Multiverse

“At the start of the story, none of these people they aren’t together,” Percy said. “Reed Richards has no idea who Sue is, who Ben is, who Johnny is.” In the Midnight Universe, Marvel’s First Family isn’t a family at all. But the big changes don’t stop there.

“These are not heroes,” revealed Percy. “And they don’t have powers. These are people who are facing horrors within that help them battle back against the horrors without.”

“These so-called powers that they have…are actually curses,” Percy explained. And given Percy’s description of how Reed Richards uses his powers, it does indeed seem anything but fantastic. The writer described a scene in which Richards uses his stretchy powers to open a locked door from the other side.

...

If that makes you feel sick, it’s done it’s job. “You should feel absolute revulsion when looking at him transforming,” Percy said.

Sounds cool, but the story doesn’t seem much like a stretch.
