Fantasti-Man was sat at the bottom of the Marianas Trench. He was sulking.
Three days earlier, he had saved the world from annihilation when he diverted the path of a 6-mile wide asteroid into the sun. He returned to Earth and carried on with his usual life-saving duties, not really thinking anything of it. He’d saved the planet countless times in the past, and he didn’t do it for the recognition. He slept well that night.
In the morning, he expected to get a letter through the door announcing a ticker-tape parade. The mat was bare. Surprisingly, he felt a bit miffed. He didn’t really want a parade, but it would have been nice for them to make some acknowledgement of his efforts. It didn’t seem fair.
He tried to not let it bother him, but it really started to bug him. Why did he even bother if these people weren’t even going to say thank you. It’s just common courtesy. He found himself so agitated that he decided to fly down to the lowest point in the Pacific Ocean and see how they coped without him. He wouldn’t stay down there for too long, he just wanted to be missed a little.
What he didn’t realise is that the mayor of Largecityopolis had arranged a surprise party for him at City Hall. All the other members of the Justice People were in attendance and the Ultra-Femicon had baked a cake. It was a Victoria sponge, FM’s favourite. They had a live band doing Wham covers and everything. It was brill.
He may be near-omnipotent, but it doesn’t stop him being a doofus.
F.M is in a funk
Acting like the brainless Hulk
Down on the sea bed like a Hake
When he should be eating U,Fs cake
yes, just because you can stop a satellite
Doesn`t mean your very bright
If you jump the gun , sulk this way
You will miss the party
I do love fantasti-man. His petulance outweighs his superpowers. An awesome combination. It’s the same combination that Stefan Dennis has. It’s powerfully sexual.
Someone who is petulant as well as all-powerful is one of the most erotic combinations known to man. It’s this very fusion that powers the entire FM franchise. I’d very much like to see a cross-over with Stefan Dennis at sone point in the future.
[...] Down The Trench – A Fantasti-Man Adventure – FM’s back and he’s having a good old-fashioned sulk. [...]
