Dr Doom: Well Reed, we meet again, and excuse me for putting your dear ex to sleep, or she'd use her powers to conjure that defense shield that would make capturing the "Eccentric Four" a bit more tiresome. Mr. Fantastic: Well, Doom... Dr Doom: I'm a doctor! The only real doctor around here. Mr. Fantastic: Oh, quite right. Your four years report card, hmm? Dr Doom: Are you forgetting where you're at? We are not in a classroom listening to some old fool babbling on and on and... The Human Torch: Oh, you mean like what you are doing now old man, or is it, old fool! Dr Doom: You smudgy little butane you! The Human Torch: If you hurt my sister, I'll... oh sis you're up, are you ok? The Invisible Woman: Just a bit woozy, but I'll be fine Johnny. Dr Doom: You'll do what! The Human Torch: Huh? Dr Doom: You said that if I hurt your sister, you'll do ... well, what, what were you going to do? The Thing: Well, if he doesn't do it, then I will! Dr Doom: Will what! I'll what! What is it that you guys will do? Who do I have here? The Fantastic Fools! The Human Torch: You'd better watch out, don't get my buddy Ben mad, ... or he'll get STONED. Mr. Fantastic: Ready Sue. The Invisible Woman: Yes Reed. Mr. Fantastic: Ben now! The Invisible Woman: Johnny, quick! Dr Doom: Huh, where, who, when, what? The Human Torch: You forgot the "how"! Ready Reed. Mr. Fantastic: Yeah, I got him. Get on board our ship and fire it up! Dr Doom: Ugh, Let go of me you Rubber Duck! Mr. Fantastic: You mean, Doc, as in doctor, right, Sucker Loon! Okay, guys, here I come. Speed away, Ben! The Thing: Okay, and away we go! The Human Torch: Woo Hoo! Dr Doom: I'm all tied up, get me out of here! Speaker: The men just ended their shift and we will be back tomorrow to untie you sucker, I mean doctor. Dr Doom: We? What do you mean we? Speaker: We all joined the Space Union yesterday. I know you're mad doctor, so after we untie you tomorrow morning, I will have a Grievance form ready for you to fill out. Oh yes, you would will need to initial and sign that form, but you needn't worry, I will have it highlighted ... then it'll be easy on the eyes, okay. Bye doc. Dr. Doom: I'm a doctor, not a duck ... AHH!

Woaaah, this is such a creative poetic piece and I'm definitely awestruck by your artistic talent of narration and describing the whole scene.. it was like scenes were moving in front of me and I really wish to see these characters coming alive with their own comic charisma, haha! Such a brilliant take for the contest, this is amazing !! :) a fav

You created your own narration.. all that is missing is the comic figures... this is the best poem I have read for this contest...
