Science Fiction Saturday: Lucky Charms Featuring Invisible Woman

I picked up a box of Lucky Charms featuring Susan Storm aka the Invisible Woman a week ago at the local Walmart's. This is another General Mills cereal promoting the upcoming Fantastic Four: First Steps movie. While I like the jumbo rainbows in the cereal, I'm not crazy about the artwork since Sue has no mouth or nose.

The back of the Lucky Charms box has the entire Fantastic Four, which includes Susan Storm aka the Invisible Woman, Johnny Storm aka the Human Torch, Reed Richards aka Mister Fantastic and Ben Grimm aka the Thing. Yes, the FantastiCar is also shown. There is also a hidden message and a decorder. It's a different message than the one found on the Honey Nut Cheerios Featuring Human Torch box.

The other two General Mills cereal boxes promoting the Fantastic Four: First Steps movie are Cinnamon Toast Crunch featuring Mister Fantastic and Reese's Puffs featuring the Thing. I won't be getting those boxes because I'm not a fan of those cereals and I don't want to be stuck eating them.

Fantastic Friday: Blue Raspberry PopTarts Featuring Fantastic Four

I actually found a box of the Blue Raspberry PopTarts promoting the Fantastic Four: First Steps movie a few weeks ago at the local Walmart's. I ate them last week and found the flavor is much stronger and sweeter than the Frosted Strawberry PopTarts. The front of the box features the Fantastic Four that includes Johnny Storm aka the Human Torch, Reed Richards aka Mister Fantastic, Ben Grimm aka the Thing and Susan Storm aka the Invisible Woman.

The back of the box features five of the eight different images on the PopTarts. I finally got one with the Invisible Woman on it. Unfortunately, the images were still blurry.

Warning: You may have problems with the blue dye used in the Blue Raspberry PopTarts several hours later (if you know what I mean, then you know). I had problems after the first two but not with the rest of the package.

Honey Nut Cheerios Featuring Human Torch

General Mills promoted Fantastic Four: First Steps with several of their cereals. The Honey Nut Cheerios box has Johnny Storm aka the Human Torch. The artwork is a retro design but I would rather have images from the Marvel movie.

The back features the entire Fantastic Four that includes the Invisible Woman, the Thing, Reed Richards aka Mister Fantastic and the Human Torch. The FantastiCar is shown but no sign of H.E.R.B.I.E. the robot. There is also a hidden message with a decoder.

Fantastic Friday: Fantastic Four #1 (2025)

Yep, Marvel released a new Fantastic Four #1 earlier this week. Susan Storm aka the Invisible Woman stands in the center of the cover with Johnny Storm aka the Human Torch, Reed Richards aka Mister Fantastic and Ben Grimm aka the Thing around her. Doctor Doom...er, Emperor Doom appears at the beginning of the issue.

Here's the summery: "The Fantastic Four return with a new issue #1, kicking off a whole new volume of their adventures through time, space, science, and the human condition! When the Fantastic Four take on Doom, things go well until they suddenly go catastrophically wrong — and they’re sent to four different eras in Earth’s history! Alone and isolated in wildly different time periods, Reed, Johnny, Ben, and Sue all have to fight to survive. Their only hope is to reach the Forever Stone: a mass of dense granite that happens to be one of the longest-lasting rocks on the planet, which — through a combination of obscurity and raw geological luck — has stayed both intact and accessible for most of Earth’s history!"

Fantastic Friday: Fantastic Four People Ads

First off, I would like to wish everyone a safe and fantastic Fourth of July.

People magazine, cover dated July 14, 2025, has several ads for the Fantastic Four: First Steps movie. Ben Grimm, Reed Richards, Susan Storm, Johnny Storm and H.E.R.B.I.E appear on a fake cover:

There is a great ad for H.E.R.B.I.E. the robot:

My favorite is the ad for the FantasiCar (I really hope Hot Wheels make one):

Fantastic Friday Featuring Fantastic Four Pop-Tarts

I actually found a floor display of Fantastic Four: First Steps Pop-Tarts at the local Dillons last Saturday. I picked up a box of eight frosted strawberry because I wanted to try that first. The front of the box features artwork of the Fantastic Four based on the movie along with a Pop-Tart featuring the group's logo.

The back of the box features five Pop-Tarts with different art that is supposed to be on them. There are supposed to be eight different designs, but I only found four in this box: H.E.R.B.I.E. the robot (twice), Johnny Storm aka the Human Torch (twice), Reed Richards aka Mister Fantastic (twice) and Ben Grimm aka the Thing (twice). I would have loved finding a Pop-Tart with Susan Storm aka the Invisible Woman on it.

The top flap of the box shows two Pop-Tarts with artwork. It also states that images were made with food coloring.

I was really disappointed with the images and the taste. Every Pop-Tart that I had featured blurry images. The strawberry flavor was very faint probably because the layer was so thin. I might try the blue raspberry ones just to see if I can get a Pop-Tart with the Invisible Woman on it. The other flavors are frosted s'mores and brown sugar cinnamon.

The Fantastic Four: First Steps Official Trailer

Here is the official trailer for The Fantastic Four: First Steps movie coming July 25, 2025:

Call me excited after watching the first official teaser for The Fantastic Four: First Steps:

 

Superhero Slots

Yahoo Games has Superhero Sluts but you have to sign in to play. The loading screen shows a wide range of Marvel characters including Thor, the Hulk, War Machine, the Destroyer, Ghost Rider and Iron Man:

You can choose Iron Man, Susan Storm aka the Invisible Woman or the Hulk as your avatar:

The first game that you can play at Superhero Slots is Iron Man 2:

Here is a screenshot of a winning Iron Man 2 game with Black Widow as wild card:

A flying Iron Man pops up on the screen:

The next Superhero Slots game is Daredevil but you have to hit level three to open it:

Of course, you will likely be out of money by this time so it's hard getting to other levels. Other games include King Kong at level five (no clue why is a superhero), the Incredible Hulk at level seven, the Mummy (another monster movie that has nothing to do with superheroes) at level nine, Elektra at level eleven, the X-Men at level thirteen, Fantastic Four at level fifteen, Punisher at level seventeen, Blade at level twenty, Thor at level twenty-three, Marilyn Monroe (lol) at level twenty-six, Ghost Rider at level twenty-nine, the Avengers at level thirty-two, New York Gangs (now they are not even trying) at level thirty-five, Rocky (yeah, the boxer movie) at level thirty-eight, Vampire Slayers (yep, another horror game) at level forty-one and Viking Conquest (WTH?) at level forty-four.

There is no Captain America game at Superhero Sluts, which is surprising. Be sure you have a lot of friends before you play so they can send you coins. Otherwise, you'll never be able to play again after you use all your starting coins.

Invisible Woman 1996 Figurine

This Invisible Woman was #5 from the Marvel Super Heroes series that McDonald's put in their Happy Meals in 1996 . She stands four inches tall and actually has a blue tint but she's green in the pictures due to my lighting. I really cannot put her in the action figure category since nothing moves on her so she is more of a figurine. I really like the face for there is a slight pink tint for her lips and there is her "4" symbol on her chest.

Women Wednesday: Sue Storm Backhands Namor

Yeah, I like a woman that pushes back when she has had enough. Sue Storm aka the Invisible Woman backhands Namor the Sub-Mariner with a wicked left that just happens to be encased in her force field. She gave him the smack down in Marvel's Fantastic Four #587 (March 2011).

Four Marvel Heroes Stickers Series 2

One of the local discount store has a new vending machine that spits out Marvel Heroes Stickers Series 2 for fifty cents each. I could not resist getting a few and I got the following stickers: #3 Wolverine, #4 Invisible Woman, #5 Captain America and #6 Iron Man. There are twelve stickers in the set and I hope to get more when I get more quarters.
