History[]
The Frightful Four came together under unknown circumstances by Wizard for the purpose of defeating Reed Richards. They ambushed Thing and brainwashed him to leading the Fantastic Four into a trap. However they were easily defeated by the Fantastic Four, and Thing broke free from their control.
Background[]
Based on the original group of the team, except for the replacement of Hydro-Man for Sandman. Sandman was intended to be used in a live-action film at the time and not allowed to be used in animation, the reason he was excluded from Spider-Man. Hydro-Man didn't join until later.
