History & Powers: Like our world's Fantastic Four, the Mutant X FF is one of the world's premier superteams, and comprises Reed Richards, Susan Storm Richards, Johnny Storm, and Benjamin J. Grimm. However, unlike our FF, this team was never bombarded by cosmic rays, don't really use code-names, and in fact, none of them have super-powers. All of their abilities are mechanically derived: Reed has four robotic arms that attach to a torso ring, Sue has a stealth armor, Johnny has a flame producing armor with jet-packs, and Ben has a giant exo-skeleton with tremendous strength. Reed does not appear to be quite as smart as his counterpart in our world, and also has never discovered the existence of other dimensions. Sue and Havok, once had an affiar, which led to strained relations between the teams. When the Goblin Queen appeared, she convinced Reed to betray his team, and put the others under her control. Only Ben resisted, and he was blasted out of the top floor of FF HQ. He ended up working with the Morlocks and the Mole Man to get people out of NYC. The remaining three now work for Madelyne, and with President Kelly's resignation, Reed was hand-picked to be the next President of the U.S. He continued to work for the Goblin Queen, and got as far as creating a dimensional gate so that she could transport demon souls into her Sentinels. However, before her defeat, Reed disappeared, as did the rest of the FF. Months later, Susan, Johnny and Ben gave their lives in the epic battle against the Beyonder II and Dracula. Reed, however, was still alive, and was called in by Dr. Strange to assist in defeating the Beyonder. Reed was monitoring the machines that were feeding power to Havok when Dracula apparently slit his throat.
