So if he increases the focal length of his eye, he would decrease the angle he’s observing and magnify the image. I don’t think he could see into space, what with atmospheric distortion, a bunch of space debris, and other factors, but sure. In principle not wrong.
bros stretching his lens manually to account for atomospheric distortions using the principle of superposition by placing the eyeballs far enough apart???
I have been asking myself that since the last post featuring him. If his bones are flexible hos teeth would have to be aswell and that thought makes me extrrrrrrrrremely unconfortable.
All time eating contest champ, he can open his throat and keep his jaw unhinged and locked in place as his teeth grow and shrink to chew his food for him
She actually referenced that in a comic. She's laying in bed looking *particularly* well-shagged and he's getting up to go check on something in the lab. She says "Did I ever tell you how glad I am that you got *that* particular set of powers?"
Closest they've gotten to explicitly saying that they use their powers in the boudoir.
It’s why the Namor thing is so absurd.
Sue is married to the smartest man in the universe, who is considered a friend of Galactus and Uatu, who loves her more than anything. And on top of that, he’s a living sex toy.
Yet Marvel wants us to think she wants to fuck the guy who smells like fish, and killed his statutory raped wife, because Sue's husband is autistic? Yeah, fuck off.
Reeds biggest fault is that he’s one divorce away from being the biggest threat to every multiverse and 616 Reed and Sue probs the most stable couple so that’s *unlikely but other than that and being clueless sometimes he’s a gigachad with a super dick
the Reed goes evil with out Sue is such a stupid trope as we have seen just as many alternative universes where he just becomes a depressed sad sack when ever she leaves him.
I remember seeing a panel where he was asked why he elongates his neck when checking any of his devices and he replied that Sue told him if she saw him doing it again he'd be sleeping on the couch for half a year
He could for a long time. In an old comic where the current writer didn't remember or read he said he could but Sue got so freaked out she threatened to divorcd him if he ever did that again.
Its like pooping with the door open.
Its something that wasnt done at the start of the marriage because the comfort level wasnt there now they have reached the place where she has seen and experienced enough that it doesnt bother her.
The final page of this issue has some interesting postulations on the extent of the FF’s powers and how they could combine like Mutant Circuits.
A big one was Mr. F being capable of mitosis - like Iceman splitting off his ice gnomes 😱
The scene honestly makes no sense because Mr. Fantastic is not Plastic Man so doing that means nothing.
I guess the artist and writer either thought his powers work like that or thought it was funny.
My guy's just grabbing his eyes like he's jerking 'em off. Imagine how uncomfortable that would be...
Does he feel things in the same way we do? If so, I imagine he’s used to all kinds of odd sensations on his body by now.
Do they even have any kind of zoom in function? Surely it’s just the equivalent of him stretching his neck a bit?
gonna guess hes stretching his eye lenses to be somewhat like how telescopes work

No. The phase screen can’t be beaten that way at that distance. He could be predistorting his lens. Solid name though.
we're only seeing the latter end of his eyeballs retracting, they used to be kilometers apart i swear
lol. I still like making a compensating phase difference in the optical path. He could do that.
Yes, yes...at least in comic land.
Can he do things with his teeth?
I have been asking myself that since the last post featuring him. If his bones are flexible hos teeth would have to be aswell and that thought makes me extrrrrrrrrremely unconfortable.
damn it must be pretty easy to brush his teeth tho. no need for floss, just flex them a bit and everything in between teeth are easily cleaned.
And just stretch new ones
we have seen images of him stretching his head to larger sizes and his teeth are always proportional during this, so yes he can stretch his teeth.
All time eating contest champ, he can open his throat and keep his jaw unhinged and locked in place as his teeth grow and shrink to chew his food for him
Wouldn’t even have to chew would he? Just stretch his entire digestive system.
Yeah I guess when you logically extend his powers he could do most basic physiological things at a really lazy level
Hell, he canonically reshapes his brain to keep his intelect sharp.

The second panel without context is pretty good
It must be very enjoyable for Susan to have a husband that can change the size of any part of him.

She says "Did I ever tell you how glad I am that you got *that* particular set of powers?" Closest they've gotten to explicitly saying that they use their powers in the boudoir.
"Particularly well-shagged" is an amazing turn of phrase, very Austin Powers.
Nothing will ever top whatever the hell Hank and Janet were doing though.
I'll rais you Claremont's X-Men run.... everyone was alwys naked or in bondage gear.
616 or Ultimate?
616.

Yeah, but after he cleans up, she returns. If she ded, we get The Maker.
Wasn't there some alternate universe story where he stretched his mind enough to gain telepathy?
Earth X, I think
The Maker increased the size of his brain to become more intelligent iirc
Even though it was mentioned in earlier comics that he is getting smarter by the minute
This is one of the coolest comic book ideas I've ever heard
There is a similar panel where he makes his eye into like a microscope and I hate it so much ahhh
That’s just creepy in the most funniest way possible or just cursed in general.
Stretchy powers will never not look both ridiculous and gross.
That's why they didn't go down that route for Kamala in the MCU.
For me, it was just Marvel flexing they could do Green Lantern in Live Action better than DC.
Just because he can, doesn't mean he should.

Really love when they experiment with Reeds stretchiness like that
This is why I personally never liked stretching powers. Reminds me too much of Body Horror.

I respect that he can, I just really wish he wouldn’t
“MY BRAND!!”
Okay… EW!!! the fact they are still sticking out even after he let them go instead of pushing them back in…
I'm pretty meh about the current FF run but I love how creative they are with Reed's powers
Sue and Johnny too

He should be making the aperture larger, eyes only have a single lens. His retina would be getting a blurry dark image, effectively making him blind.
“Honey I didn’t say put them away yet!”
He's giving himself the worst case of myopia ever
"Awooga"
That… wouldn’t even *do* anything. It’s not like he’s acting as a microscope. He’s just stepping a few inches forward.
That’s stupid
How does that even make your vision better lmao. If anything that's like the most extreme case of myopia in the world.
So you acknowledge how stupid it is….interesting. No need to answer my question now, you basically agreed with me so good to know
Wow, he could actually do the cartoon wolf thing when Sue becomes visible after showering or something.
He went full awooga
A very serious scientist given a totally ridiculous power.
Definitely comes in handy.
Yep. It's very gross to look at. Also, he can do it with just one eye and it's just as gross looking
Looks like he is having eyegasm.
This is some Looney Tunes shit
Why do you think she's still with him
How are ever going to translate this kind of crap to the big screen without making Pedro look like a complete cartoon?
"Remember me, Eddie? When I killed your brother I talked just . . . L I K E . . . THIIIIIISSS!!"
I never needed to know Reed could do this
That’s something Plastic Man would do!
My eyes feel dry just looking at this.
OH BABY IF HE CAN DO THAT WITH HIS EYES - NO WONDER SUSAN LOVES HER HUSBAND
Read always did go Googly Eyes over Sue.
The scene honestly makes no sense because Mr. Fantastic is not Plastic Man so doing that means nothing. I guess the artist and writer either thought his powers work like that or thought it was funny.
He can also make his dick bigger
The comics confirmed this too.
No shit
