Details

With Sue unable to actively be a member of the Fantastic Four, Crystal joins with the team. Reed, however, is unsure of her ability because of her young age. However, Crystal is able to be functional -- and much needed -- addition to the team when the Wizard returns to get revenge on the Fantastic Four for his last defeat.

He attacks the Baxter Building directly, destroying his old Wonder Gloves left behind during his last battle with the group. The new Fantastic Four chase after the Wizard and fight him by the docks. Overpowered and unprepared with the addition of Crystal to the group, the Wizard jumps into the harbor and makes a quick getaway. The battle over, Reed welcomes Crystal as a member of the team.
