Fictional team biography

[edit]

The Frightful Four first appeared in Fantastic Four #36, consisting of Wizard, Sandman (who was given a special armor that would work with his sand-based abilities upon being freed by Wizard), Paste-Pot Pete (who was freed by Wizard), and Medusa (who had amnesia at the time).[3] The villains were originally fairly successful, almost defeating the Fantastic Four during Susan Storm and Reed Richards's engagement party in their first appearance. They captured all the members except the Human Torch, who was able to free the others.[4] The Frightful Four even stole the Fantastic Four's powers, which later almost killed them in their second appearance.[5]

When the Fantastic Four disappeared, the Frightful Four attempted to break into the Baxter Building, but were accidentally scared off by Norse God Balder believing him to be the Human Torch.[6]

Wizard later used a hypnosis device on the Thing in order to make him their obedient slave by Medusa's request. When the Fantastic Four found a lead on where Ben was, they traveled to New Jersey and were soon attacked by the Frightful Four. During the fight, Thing arrived and attacked his former comrades. Thing's added strength was what the Frightful Four needed to defeat the Fantastic Four, while all the members were bound by different booby-trapped restraints. While Mister Fantastic was glued to a wall with the Trapster's paste, Wizard convinced Thing that Mister Fantastic was responsible for his monstrous nature and convinced him to kill Reed.[7] Human Torch and Invisible Woman managed to free themselves from their respective traps and counterattacked the Frightful Four giving Mister Fantastic enough time to free himself from Trapster's paste. However, while fighting Thing one on one, Ben managed to catch Reed and smash him into an urn. During the fight, Human Torch was captured and Invisible Woman chases after the urn with Reed inside. While the Frightful Four brainwashed Human Torch, Invisible Woman freed Mister Fantastic. They got a hold of a number of the Wizard's anti-gravity discs. Using them to disorientate the other Frightful Four members, they used one to make taking Thing back to base easier. Although the other members were caught up, Wizard and Human Torch were still free and chase after Mister Fantastic, Invisible Woman, and Thing.[8] While being chased by Wizard and a mind-controlled Human Torch, Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman managed to escape from them. The Frightful Four incapacitated the Human Torch when they found out that he was pretending to be mind-controlled. Meanwhile, Mister Fantastic tried to use a device to reverse the brainwashing on Thing. However, Thing tried to destroy the machine in order to get free causing an explosion that exposes him to a near-lethal dose of radiation. Although it worked and Thing was changed back to normal: he was put in a bed to see if he would live or die. The Frightful Four then returned to the Baxter Building and attacked Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman, showing them that they had Human Torch as a hostage. However, Thing revived just long enough to crush Wizard's body armor, giving Human Torch the chance to free himself from the gigantic anti-gravity disc he was tied to. The Fantastic Four then easily defeated their opponents and captured Wizard, Trapster, and Sandman while Medusa got away. After the three remaining members of the Frightful Four were turned over to the police, Thing decided to rejoin the Fantastic Four with hopes that if Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman can endure this sort of daily danger and be married, then maybe someday he could be normal again.[9]

The Frightful Four got back together and spied on the Fantastic Four during their visit to child-rearing expert Agatha Harkness. That time, they planned to kidnap Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman's newborn son Franklin Richards. This time, they were defeated by Agatha who revealed to the Fantastic Four that she was also a witch.[10]

Wizard, Trapster, and Sandman reunited in order to look for a fourth member after Medusa regained her memories. As a result, Electro joined up with the Frightful Four.[11] The Frightful Four prepared to attack Spider-Man after Dr. Curt Connors cured him of his Spider-Lizard form.[12] The Frightful Four later arrived at the Statue of Liberty where Spider-Man and Human Torch met. Electro used a specially-made suit that imitated Human Torch's powers in order to lure Spider-Man to them. Spider-Man was caught off-guard because of this and ended up overpowered. Wizard then planned to have Trapster pose as Spider-Man and enter the Baxter Building.[13] After Trapster's infiltration, the Frightful Four attacked the building, taking out the Fantastic Four one at a time. Although they were able to take the other three by surprise, they were defeated when Spider-Man escaped and came to Mister Fantastic's aid. Spider-Man tricked Electro into knocking out the Wizard, before he and Mister Fantastic trapped Sandman and Electro in a vacuum cleaner and a fire-hose respectively. Trapster surrendered when he was confronted by the other three Fantastic Four members after they regained consciousness.[14]

Thing was later attacked by the Frightful Four with Thundra as their fourth member. Medusa aided Thing only to be roped up by Trapster.[15] They then attacked Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman as Franklin unleashed energy that ended up awakening Thing. The latter managed to fight off the Frightful Four who were able to get away.[16] While away from the Frightful Four, Thundra later kidnapped Alicia Masters in order to fight Thing at Shea Stadium.[17]

Wizard, Sandman, and Trapster reunited to hunt down the Fantastic Four after returning from Atlantis. The Fantastic Four managed to turn the tides against them.[18]

The Frightful Four took over the Baxter Building and captured the Fantastic Four. They subsequently held an audition for a fourth member much to the disappointment of the Baxter Building's landlord Walter Collins. Texas Twister was the first to audition, but declined when he learned that they are not going to pay him for his services. Captain Ultra was another person to show up at the audition and showed off his powers only to faint when one of the Frightful Four members lit a match. Then Osprey auditioned in order for them to give him superpowers which caused Wizard to attach a hover-disk to Osprey sending him flying out of the Baxter Building. Wizard announced on the PA stating that those who did not have superpowers did not need to audition. When Tigra arrived and freed the Fantastic Four, Wizard announced that whoever can defeat them can join the Frightful Four. Out of the villains that left, only Brute (the Counter-Earth version of Reed Richards) remained.[19] Brute joined the Frightful Four and assisted them in fighting the Fantastic Four.[20][21]

Wizard was later freed from his prison on Ryker's Island by a mysterious person who had joined up with the Frightful Four. As they made their escape, the guards came after them only to be stopped by a sea monster summoned by the mysterious person. Wizard was impressed as the two head to land to hunt down Spider-Man. Wizard used a giant mechanical spider on the World Trade Center in order to draw out Spider-Man, who ended up knocking the giant mechanical spider off the World Trade Center. The device that was on the mechanical spider enabled Wizard and his ally to track down Spider-Man's spider-senses to his apartment building where they end up rounding up the tenants. Spider-Man attacked them from a different direction. After rescuing the tenants, Spider-Man went after the two.[22] Upon meeting up with Trapster and Sandman, the mysterious ally of Wizard was revealed to be Llyra. Spider-Man learned of this when Namor came to town.[23] Spider-Man and Namor engaged the Frightful Four and managed to defeat them.[24]

Wizard later assembled Hydro-Man, Titania, and Klaw as the Frightful Four when attacking the Four Freedoms Plaza following Sandman's reform. During the battle, Thing regressed to his human form.[25] The Frightful Four managed to take down the other members of the Fantastic Four as Klaw was defeated.[26] When Dragon Man was brought in as Klaw's replacement, Thing had to rescue his teammates and stop the Frightful Four.[27]

The Fantastic Four ended up fighting the Frightful Four that consisted of Wizard, Klaw, Red Ghost, and She-Thing.[28]

Wizard gathered Absorbing Man, Living Laser, and Mister Hyde together as an unofficial Frightful Four. They attacked the wedding of Rick Jones and Marlo Chandler only to end up fighting the Hulk.[29]

At some point, the Wizard assembled a Frightful Four consisting of himself, Deadpool, Taskmaster, and Constrictor as a test team.[30]

Wizard later assembled Trapster, Dreadknight, and Man-Bull together as the Frightful Four when it came to abducting Dr. Cargill and forcing him to use his expertise for the Wizard's endeavor. They were opposed by Spider-Man, the Rangers, the Right Riders, and Dr. Cargill's daughter Turbine.[31]

At the time when Doctor Doom switched minds with Mister Fantastic, Wizard led the Frightful Four (consisting of himself, She-Thing, Trapster, and a Punisher robot) in an attack on the Baxter Building. Due to the appearance of Doctor Doom and not knowing what happened, Wizard ordered a retreat not wanting to fight Doctor Doom.[32]

When the Fantastic Four's reputation was damaged by their attempted coup of Latveria to destroy Doctor Doom's arsenal, the Wizard assembled a new team consisting of himself, the Trapster, Hydro-Man (who now wears a costume made from the same material has Human Torch's costume), and his ex-wife Salamandra, seeking to take advantage of the team's current poor standing by defeating them on a live broadcast.[33] However, with the aid of the Wizard and Salamandra's daughter Cole (who was subjected to various experiments in the womb that give her natural control of the Wizard's gravitons), the Frightful Four are defeated when Cole helps the Fantastic Four find her father's base, Wizard subsequently trapping Trapster in a time loop when he becomes angered at the Trapster's incompetence while Hydro-Man and Salamandra are defeated by hitting them with the Wizard's own anti-gravity discs.[34]

Another version of the Frightful Four (consisting of Wizard, Hydro-Man, Titania, and Trapster) appears to challenge the Fantastic Four again only to find themselves dealing with the additional presence of the Black Panther and Storm, who had temporarily joined the Fantastic Four while Reed and Sue were on a second honeymoon to work on their marriage after their separation during the "Civil War".[35] When Klaw's body was restored to normal by Wizard and joins up with him, the group becomes the Frightful Five.[36]

When Thing recently got engaged, his fiancé received a wreath from the Frightful Four with a card saying "See you at the wedding."[37]

During the "Dark Reign" storyline, Quasimodo analyzed the Frightful Four for Norman Osborn. If Osborn can stomach giving Wizard an ego-boost, he can form an incarnation of the Frightful Four that would serve Osborn. Quasimodo recommends to Osborn that he should keep Wizard on a tight leash.[38]

At the time when Thing was fighting Red Hulk, a new line-up of the Frightful Four (consisting of Wizard, Klaw, Lyra, and Trapster) attacked the Baxter Building.[39]

A flashback recalled by Spider-Man and Invisible Woman had Spider-Man pulling down Human Torch's pants before the Frightful Four (consisting of Wizard, Trapster, and Beetle) attacked them. Invisible Woman managed to pull their pants down and was arrested alongside them for indecent exposure. Lucky for her, Spider-Man and Human Torch bailed her out.[40]

Under the orders of a mysterious benefactor, Wizard formed another incarnation of the Frightful Four consisting of Wrecker, Thunderball, and a female Bulldozer. They attacked Thing and depowered Human Torch in Times Square.[41] During the fight to which the rest of the Fantastic Four joined, the members of the Frightful Four demonstrated increased powers with which they almost defeated the heroes until the Future Foundation replacement team led by Ant-Man arrived to help them and finally capture the villains in one of Invisible Woman's force fields until S.H.I.E.L.D. arrived. As the Frightful Four were being taken into S.H.I.E.L.D. custody, Wizard revealed that the attack had been financed by a bigger enemy, and that they did their part.[42]

Wizard's mind began to shows signs of dementia due to punishment inflicted by Black Bolt,[43] so he decided to create a new Frightful Four with Klaw, Karl Malus, and Carnage. He attempted to control Kletus Kassidy's mind. Due to his lobotomization, he could not. He instead transferred his blood into Malus and made him into Superior Carnage.[44] Wizard's goal was to take over NYC City Hall and impress his son, but Superior Spider-Man (Doctor Octopus' mind in Spider-Man's body) was able to stop him.[45]

Wizard was later freed by the same individual who financed his attack and gave him more resources to reform the Frightful Four. Using Gazelle, Reptilla, and Vertigo of Salem's Seven, Wizard attacked Chicago to get the attention of Mister Fantastic. Mister Fantastic was almost defeated by the Frightful Four until Scarlet Witch appeared to help him.[46] After witnessing the scale of the Quiet Man's plans for revenge coupled with the "betrayal" of his clone Bentley 23, Wizard led the new Frightful Four of himself, She-Thing, Thundra and Sandman against the Quiet Man's invasion concluding that this was not a world he wanted for his "son".[47]

After Deadpool failed to deliver Dracula's bride Shiklah in time, Dracula created a literal Frightful Four consisting of Brood mercenary Xzax, Marcus the Centaur, N'Kantu, the Living Mummy, and Frankenstein's Monster.[48] Except for Frankenstein's Monster, the entire team was killed by Deadpool.[49]
