Disagree.

Mister Fantastic is to Superman what Cop Rock is to Golden Girls.

I’m on team Stretcho.

There’s his super-intellect and problem solving skills to take into account as well.

Although, at times he can also be too focused on his science and be very socially aloof and thoughtless, especially to Sue.

Gotta admit, they're both lame.

[Ken Aldred]

Good in the FF, no interest in him as a solo character, unlike Superman. Works best in a team dynamic with contrasting personalities.

I never viewed Mr Fantastic and his stretch abilities seriously. He’s smart and has a lame strength. In that team, it just works. Superman in any team doesn’t work for me because for me it’s like “he could just take on whatever threat himself and it would be done with….why is he with others?”

Stretcho is the besto.

Originally, Superman was really too perfect.  You ended up with some really offbeat "villains" - more funny than dangerous - and of course they had to invent a way (Kryptonite) to bring any drama at all to the stories.  His appeal to kids is obvious but as an adult you have to work a little (or concentrate on the Cavill movies) to suspend your disbelief.

Only thing more lame than Mr Fantastic is Stan Lee who seen the lame plastic man and did a knock off and actually named him mr fantastic. Can't believe people pay so much for the 1st appearance of the thing. A stretch man, invisible woman, and a human torch I have all seen well before the fantastic four.

He treats her like she's invisible!

I know what you mean. You may well have the Hulk in your team, but there will always be a scenario where the villain can only be defeated by the Wasp flying through a small hole.

I never liked it when Spidey teamed up either, or joined the FF. He's a loner.

I loved it. One offs are OK. No permanent team joining though, to be clear. Or semi-permanent.
