For the Fantastic Four contest by Robert James Liquori

Victor Von Doom is looking for trouble, he wants to turn the world into rubble. He begins to unleash his evil wrath, causing carnage to buildings in his path. Inflamed with hate for the Fantastic Four, he wants to smash Reed Richards to the floor. The army is no match for his sharp skills, his technopathy controls their free wills. He arrives at the Statue of Liberty, with a few hostages in captivity. He is joined by the sly Puppet Master and Galactus to cause extreme disaster. Only the family of super heroes can save the day, with cosmic powers to protect from those who prey. Mister Fantastic with his elastic limbs and intellect. Storm the invisible queen with a shield to protect. The Thing a mountain of might with strength to praise. The Human Torch a fireball with flames ablaze Mister Fantastic distracts DR Doom, the Thing punches him with a big boom! Storm takes hostages into a room, her invisibility saving them from gloom. Human Torch scorches Galactus's face, defeated, he scurries back into space. Puppet Master is held down by The Thing, as Torch smoulders his cerebral strings. Dr Doom tries to escape Mister Fantastic, but he captures him with his arms of elastic. Storm removes his battery power pack, the Thing drains him further with a big smack! Villains thrown into a protected jail, world is safe again to tell a heroic tale.. Another victory as superheroes rise. Job well done conquering evil's guise!

Your poem added real life to the Fantastic Four. Well done, Silent One. Maybe the Fantastic Four should be in politics...it could happen and could work, right? Nicely done, Sara

Oh this is my second attempt, commenting on your poem, for some reason soup just crashed,,i was saying i felt like i was watching this scene unfold as i read your well crafted poem. With brilliant and creative rhymes, with intriguing storytelling where readers want to read more to see how this end. I love so many lines in this especially “ Only the family of super heroes can save the day, with cosmic powers to protect from those who prey.“ brilliant seems like you’ve described them eloquently—
