How strong is Invisible Woman? Fantastic Four character powers & weakness explained Marvel ComicsA trip to outer space bombards four adventures with cosmic rays, and Sue Storm walks away with the ability to turn invisible. These days, the powers of the Invisible Woman have evolved to the point that she could potentially end the world. Sue Storm had it rough in the early days of the Fantastic Four. Then known as The Invisible Girl, Sue was often portrayed as little more than a scared girl to be kidnapped or ignored. But times change, and the media\u2019s perception of women changed too. Sue Storm went from perpetual damsel in distress to someone just as capable as her male counterparts in the Fantastic Four, if not more so. These days, she\u2019s downright terrifying. Sue\u2019s powers have reached a level where she\u2019s considered a potentially world-ending threat, but she still manages to balance that with keeping the Fantastic Four together. If you\u2019ve ever wanted to know more about just what the Invisible Woman is capable of, here\u2019s a rundown of her powers and weaknesses in Marvel Comics. Invisible Woman powers in Marvel Comics Invisibility As a result of being bombarded by cosmic rays, Sue gains the power to make herself invisible in 1961\u2019s Fantastic Four #1. Essentially she has the ability to bend all known wavelengths of light around an object, though Sue\u2019s eyes have evolved to a point that she can still see when invisible, as well as spot other invisible or hidden objects. Originally, this power is relatively mundane, as Sue makes herself, her team, or a few small objects invisible. However, years of training have made her exceptionally skilled with this power. That growth happened slowly. Sue started being able to turn larger and larger things invisible. These days, Sue can turn almost any object of any size invisible. She can also alter how light hits an object rather than just bending it, changing its appearance or even color. She also can control just how fine the invisibility is, such as turning Dr. Doom\u2019s armor invisible so his scarred visage is revealed. Psionic Force Fields In addition to her invisibility powers, Invisible Woman has the ability to project psionic force fields. Over the years, Sue\u2019s proficiency with the fields has progressed to the point that she\u2019s one of Marvel\u2019s most powerful characters, full stop. Originally, Sue\u2019s fields were simple bubbles or walls. Over time, with extensive training and help from Ben Grimm\u2019s wife and sculptor Alicia Masters, she learned to make a variety of shapes with her fields. She can use them as passive shields but has also learned to cast them out as concussive forces. Their implementation has grown, too. Sue can use them as a means of traversal or expand them inside an object to make it explode. She has such finite control that she can form a small force field in a blood vessel to cut off oxygen to someone\u2019s brain, but such masterful skill that she once blotted out the sun to cast a perpetual shade over part of the Earth, then held that field in place for three days. Invisible Woman weaknesses in Marvel Comics Mental Limitations Sue\u2019s powers are an extension of her mind, which means she\u2019s limited by her own mental capacity. Though she\u2019s improved tremendously over the years, she\u2019s still limited to the breaking point of her own mind. This can be as simple as distracting Sue so that she\u2019s not able to focus on her field. It can also be finding a way to render her unconscious. Sue\u2019s fields also can take only so much damage, at which point she\u2019ll feel pain feedback from them. Pushing her force field to the limit will render her unconscious. Cosmic Power Synergy After the fall of Doctor Doom\u2019s reborn universe in Secret Wars, Sue stayed with her husband Reed, and their children, Franklin and Valeria. The family explored the cosmos, helping Franklin and the Molecule Man rebuild the multiverse. During this time, Ben Grimm and Sue\u2019s brother, Johnny, were returned to Earth with no knowledge of Reed and Sue\u2019s fate. During this time, Ben and Johnny discovered their powers were growing weaker. It\u2019s revealed that the Four\u2019s powers are cosmically tethered to each other, and being a universe apart is causing them to slowly lose their abilities. Once Invisible Woman and the FF are reunited, their powers are restored. That\u2019s all we have for now on the Invisible Woman\u2019s strengths and weaknesses in Marvel Comics, but be sure to stick with Dexerto for more Fantastic Four and comic book news.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
