Invisible Woman is the codename for Susan Storm-Richards, a fictional comic book superhero featured in comic book titles published by Marvel Comics. The character was created by writer Stan Lee and artist Jack Kirby and first appeared in the premiere issue of Fantastic Four, Volume 1, cover-dated November, 1961.

Overview

Susan Storm is a member of the superhero team known as the Fantastic Four as well as a founding member of the Future Foundation. She is the wife of team leader Reed Richards aka Mister Fantastic, and older sister of hotshot hero Johnny Storm, the Human Torch. She has two children, Franklin and Valeria. She counts team member Ben Grimm as one of her closest friends and named him godfather to her children. Following the group's exposure to cosmic radiation, Susan developed the ability to turn her entire body, or select parts of her body invisible. She can also generate invisible force fields of varying size and durability.

Biography

Susan Richards was attacked by an earth elemental at the Casa Tindolini hair salon - one of four such creatures created by Diablo. The creature covered her in a layer of dirt, but she dispelled it with a force field. She then created a force field sled to lead it away until she found Ben Grimm, saving him from being covered by a water elemental. Sue then attacked the air elemental, encasing it in a force field bubble and constricting it until the continuing pressure destroyed it.
