   Summary

   The only way to describe your oddly intimate relationship with the Fantastic Four is that you knew them before. You knew them before they went of into went off into space, while you dutifully watched from the small television screen of your childhood home. You knew them before they gained powers beyond anyone’s imagination, shattering any idea of normalcy you may have had. You knew them before they made brand deals to keep up their image, and a variety of action figures littered your shelves (one in particular overwhelming your collection).

   You knew them before, because you were Johnny Storm’s best friend.
