Just got a wild hair! This is not business but, allegedly, pleasure.

Good call! Yeah, I totally buy Ben being able to pull that. Maybe he told Reed about it.

I’m not one of those people who believes Reed’s brain is composed 100% of science professor facts and is flummoxed by basic popular culture, but I do have a hard time believing “In the Hills, the Cities” is a reference he just has at the top of his mind.

Reed: FASCINATING. THIS INCARNATION OF TERMINUS IS SOME FORM OF COMPOSITE BEING…MADE UP OF THE COLLECTIVE SUBSTANCE OF THOUSANDS OF INDIVIDUAL MOLOIDS!
Reed: THE OVERALL PHYSICAL STRUCTURE IS VAGUELY REMINISCENT OF THE CONSTRUCT CLIVE BARKER ENVISIONED IN HIS STORY,
"IN THE HILLS, THE CITIES." ONLY IN THIS INSTANCE, THE MOLOIDS ARE BEING FORCIBLY MUTATED INTO THIS AGGREGATE…

Unpopular enough that he got killed off in the mid-90s to make way for “Teen Tony”!

I mean, we got an episode out of Nick Fury vs SHIELD. I think we could get an episode out of anything!

Interesting! The character shows up for an arc in PAD/ChrisCross’ Captain Marvel (Genis), but I know little about the original mini beyond “Bill Mumy and Miguel Ferrer wrote a comic one time.” Seems like it’d make sense that folks outside comics would approach superheroes w/ a different perspective.
