Origin


Along with the other members of the Fantastic Four Susan Storm's story begins in the pages of Fantastic Four #1 (1961).

After the fateful bombardment of cosmic rays Sue found she had the ability to turn invisible at will, her life would change forever as she took on the moniker of the Invisible Girl!




60 Fantastic Years of History


As time progress Sue discovered more to her powers, gaining the ability to turn other things invisible as well as generate powerful force-fields that she can shape in any way she chooses.

Susan also married her fellow teammate, Mr Fantastic, and has had two children with him. Becoming one of the most well-known superhero mothers in media.

She has also at times led the Fantastic Four, been the Queen of old Atlantis, worked as a spy for SHIELD, and has done many more things over the course of her career.

Eventually, Sue believes she's outgrown the 'Girl' part of her codename and finally becomes The Invisible Woman!


Current Invisible Woman


Sue has grown exponentially since her introduction in both confidence and power. She is now considered the most powerful member of the Fantastic Four and one of the more powerful heroes in Marvel.

She is now a more assertive and respected member of the Fantastic Four, as well as a competent leader in her own right.

I look forward to what's in store for Sue in the upcoming years and hope she continues to grow and develop.

Lets hope 2022 is a Fantastic year for the Invisible Woman!

Recommended/Essential Reading


These are for particular runs/arcs that had Sue as the focus or has great moments for her. Which is why runs prior to Byrne's, such as Stan Lee's/Jack Kirby's run, were left out. She had great moments and some focus in those runs, but they're few and far between.

Great art!

Happy New Year everyone! Hoping for more Invisible Woman in the new year

I'm really interested in what she does in Devil's Reign. Sue without her powers could lead to seeing her use her other talents like her martial arts and S.H.I.E.L.D training.
