"Hold it a second." "In case you missed the story called Incursión Of The Skrulls, they're evil aliens who seek to conquer our planet." " Would you back it up, please?" " [tape whirs]" "Because there may be some viewers who don't speak Skrull, everything will be translated for you into English by the Mighty Marvel Translingual Interpreter." "Revolting." "I, Amok-Krall, Emperor of the Skrull, tricked by that despicable, elastic-bodied Earth lout" "Mr. Fantastic." "But he fooled us all, Your Highness, by showing us those fake movie scenes we thought were real." "Seeing monsters such as these, you decided our invasión would be doomed, even with the Fantastic Four out of the way." "How could I know that Mr. Fantastic had assumed the identity of Kok Nal my own agent, who'd previously assumed the guise of Mr. Fantastic to discredit him?" "I would not even know I'd been hoodwinked if you had not intercepted this garbage from some... [growls] loathsome Earth entity known as "cable televisión"." "But I shall be avenged." "And I shall succeed in conquering the Earth because I have created the ultimate weapon." "I give you Super Skrull." "[female Skrull chuckles] Magnificent." "But will he be powerful, cunning and resourceful enough to defeat the Fantastic Four?" "Show her." "These klaxon-beam fighters have orders to defeat Super Skrull, starting now." "Flame on!" "[Amok-Krall] The flame of Mr. Fantastic's youthful friend," "The Human Torch, will be no match for my champion." "His flames are hotter than the laser lava of Mount Kling-Skreel-Ah." "Collisión course!" "Avert!" "Now, bring on the cannibal android robots." "Super Skrull's stretchability makes Mr. Fantastic look like a second-hand rubber band." "And his strength makes that crude Thing look as weak as a Ploverian toad-flea." "[female] He is monumental, Your Excellency." "Yes. [chuckles]" "I have graded his training report" "A for Annihilation." "And this will be his graduation examination." "[female] The noxious slime slug of Tyrruvial." "His acid secretions can dissolve chromo-steel." "We must flee. [gasps] Oh." "What is the meaning of this outrage?" "Be proud, Commander." "You are a part of history in the making." "Super Skrull can outdo the Invisible Woman as well." "And he also has a keen flair for the theatrical." "Are you all right, Commander?" "One of my more interesting rides." "And Super Skrull has one other special ability." "I do, Your Highness, but in accordance with your instructions," "I shall not reveal its nature until called upon to utilize it." "Well spoken, warrior." "Now, leave for Earth immediately." "And rain destruction upon all who would block my conquest." "I hear." "And obey." "[woman] No, no, you can't weasel out of this one, Dr. Richards." "You are responsible for damages to my building." "And this court order says you'll pay to fix them or go directly to jail." "But Miss Forbes, that's unreasonable." "The building was damaged when we were saving Earth from Galactus." "Balderdash and poppycock!" "I have no time for fairy-tales." "And extinguish your foot before I call the fire marshal." " Do it." " Oh, Reed." "Now." "I'm sorry for you, Mrs. Richards." "I think you may actually be a normal person down deep inside." "But you owe me $150,000 to repair this building." "And if I don't have it by Friday, you can sleep in the subway." " Come along, Foo Foo, darling." " [dog growls and yaps]" "Lighten up, guys, Ben's got it worked out." "Since when is Ben a monetary expert?" "His idea of investing is spending his entire allowance on Wayne Newton CDs." "Well, he got it right this time." "He said this is our ticket to financial independence." "[Reed] Huh." "High Visibility Productions." "Manny Friendly, Producer." "Ben sold our rights to MTV." "We're gonna be rock stars." "All right, Benny, man, ready to rehearse your big number?" "You got it, Manny, baby." "[heavy guitar riff]" "[Johnny] Cool." "Silence on my set!" "I'm Manny Friendly!" "Producer, director, everything." "A hairdresser, a decorator." "I'm sorry, I didn't know." "Put a sock in it, White Bread." " What was that?" " This is unprofessional." " I wanna see my agent." " You don't have one." "Then get me one, ya dipstick." " Look." " [Reed] Good grief!" "[Sue] A spaceship!" " I have to get a better look." " [Friendly] Come back." "Nobody leaves a Friendly set till I say so." "This is incredible." "A huge Skrull spaceship landing in the middle of Times Square." "[citizens clamor] [all shout]" "[Reed] I think we're in for the fight of our lives." "Citizens of Planet Earth, I am Super Skrull, emissary of the Imperial Skrull Expedition Forces." "I have been appointed by Emperor Amok to be your new leader." "Here are your orders." "[chuckles] The yutz expects New Yorkers to take orders!" "He's out of his gourd." "You have 24 Earth hours to surrender all military personnel and weaponry to me." "That does it." "It's time to give him the old five-finger facial." "No, Ben." "There's a crowd, and Super Skrull is undoubtedly dangerous." "You will obey or I shall destroy your city." "Remember, 24 hours." "The Skrulls wouldn't have sent a single warrior down to conquer this planet, unless he had some extremely powerful capabilities." "We've gotta see where he's going." "[Thing] Better move it, 'cause we're gonna lose the bum." "Stop!" "My rehearsal!" "You signed a contract." "[Thing] Yeah, but so did Roseanne Barr." "[Reed] Stay well back." "We don't want him to know we're on his tail." "[chuckles] The fools are following you, Super Skrull." "Just as the Emperor planned." "[Super Skrull] Naturally." "What Earth beings lack in intelligence, they make up for in stupidity. [cackles]" "Now I shall let them fight, on the ground of my choosing." "He's headed into the marsh." "He must've spotted us, darling." "Secure for individual reconnaissance." "Flame on." "See you downstairs." "Johnny, be careful." "Yeah, and eat your vegetables and don't talk to strange Skrulls." "[Reed] Disengage." "This could be a trap." "Reed, is my fireproof collar mic working?" "Perfectly." "I read you loud and clear." "Me, too, hothead." "Keep yapping." "It's tough to make out, but I think I see Super Skrull's ship ahead in a fog bank." "Wait for us." "We don't know how powerful he is." "I guess I better find out then, right?" "[Sue] Johnny!" "The young one shall be the first to feel my might." "Look no further, Earthling." "Here I am!" "I'm comin' for you, you creature-feature reject." " You drained my flames from me." " How observant of you." "Johnny." "He's been hurt." "He expects you to rush to Johnny." "Wait till I distract him, then do it." "Here comes Mr. Fantastic himself." "Right on cue." "Soon it will be two down, two to go." "Game is up, Super Skrull." "Surrender while you can... still... breathe." "Squeeze or be squeezed, eh, Mr. Fantastic?" "Unluckily for you, this Skrull squeezes back." "Johnny, speak to me!" "Sis, Super Skrull outflamed me." "And he's matching Reed stretch for stretch." "[stretching, straining]" "What unbelievable strength and elasticity." "His powers may be superior to mine." "But not greater than the four of us together." "Now that you have been defeated, I..." "We're not through, Snake Eyes, we're just warmin' up." "You're about to get even warmer." "You won't harm them while I'm here." "Now it's my turn." "Not there." "I'm over here." "Yah!" " He's got Sue's power too." " And more!" "With you beaten," "I shall..." "Huh?" "Yo, Lizard Lips!" "It's clobberin' time." "[Sue] Reed, he's more powerful than Ben." "Fantastic." "This action will make my Thing video go platinum." "Now it's my turn, pally." " [Reed] Ben's winning." " [Sue] Go, Ben, go." "What?" "That orange-skinned compost heap is demolishing my champion." "Let's get this footage back to the film lab now." "Ah, the tide has turned, Excellency." "[Thing moans]" "You get the license number of that truck?" "You have served your purpose." "Now go and tell your people that it is useless to resist me." "Nothing can defeat Super Skrull!" "[narrator] After a hurried consultation, the President of the U.S.A. and the United Nations launched an all-out strike on Super Skrull at his landing site in the New Jersey marsh." "But the failure of this operation and unexpected lack of response from the Fantastic Four left world leaders with only one option:" "to meet Super Skrull's demands until another course of action can be determined." "The march of captive military personnel and their weapons has already begun, with less than one hour remaining until the deadline imposed by this strange alien invader." "Great." "Super Skrull's getting away with murder 'cause nobody can take him." "And the Fantastic Four's sittin' here like the Four Feeble Fussy Guys." "Hmm." "We don't need "Hmming", Big Brain, we need big-time clobberin'." "Reed knows that." "If there's a way out of this, he'll find it." " You will, won't you, darling?" " I've got to." "But two things puzzle me." "First, if Super Skrull can duplicate, even surpass, each of our abilities, why didn't he destroy us when he had the chance?" "And why was Ben able to whip Super Skrull when Manny Friendly flew by, but unable to continue doing so when Friendly left?" "It's Friendly time!" "You still got a video to deliver, Benny, baby, so you don't come to me, I come to you." "Super Skrull is about to destroy civilization." "How can you even think about a stupid music video?" "Hey, stupid music is my life." "Sing it, Benny." "Come on, man." "It's arresting time." "They refuse to pay for the damages they did, so book 'em, Danno." "[feedback]" "Oh!" "What on earth was that hideous screech?" "Feedback, lady, when you just walked between my artiste and this sensitive microphone, you screwed up the flow of melodic energy." " What did you say?" " She messed up the music." "I'll give you music, you horrible, hairy hippie." "And you're next, you tone-deaf nincompoop." "Ah-ha!" "Now I know how to defeat Super Skrull." "To the laboratory, quickly." "Hey, what about my future in the show biz?" "Oh, well." "When he comes to, tell him I'm available for feature films." "If I like the director." " They're escaping, you dolts." " [dog whines]" "Foo Foo, kill, darling, kill." "Just as Miss Forbes interrupted the flow of sound when she came between Ben and Manny's microphone," "Manny's helicopter interrupted the flow of alien energy which was making Super Skrull invincible." "Enormous energy, beaming down to him from Planet Skrull." "So that's why we couldn't take him." "He had a whole planet's power source backing him up." "Exactly." "Oh, that's a brilliant analysis, darling." "Yeah." "But what good does it do?" "It enabled me to build this jammer device." "Once it's been placed on Super Skrull's head, it may interrupt the flow of energy from his planet." "Great." "You ain't sure that doohickey works, and all we gotta do is get him to wear it for a hat?" "Well, it's the only chance we have." "Do we go for it, or not?" "[soldiers all talk at once]" "Yes." "They will make excellent slaves at the Murakium mines." "Proceed, Super Skrull." " [jet engines]" " Wh...?" "Yo, Jolly Green Goofball." "We didn't want you to get lonesome." "We challenge you to a final confrontation." "On Crater Island." "[Sue, Reed] If you dare." "You have just signed your death warrant." " I don't like this, Majesty." " Nonsense." "The generator which allows Super Skrull to tap into the full power of this planet is functioning brilliantly." "[Emperor] Nothing can possibly go wrong." "Hey, Turkey Neck, over here." "Ah-ha!" "It's over, boy." " Now, Sue." " Super Skrull, use your final power." "Now." "Gotta..." "let... go." "He has hypnotic powers." "Sue, remember how we threw it at the beach." "One Frisbee coming up." "They've blocked the energy flow." "It's... it's backfiring." "[Reed] Hurry, his disorientation won't last long." "[Reed] Once Johnny fuses molten rock over the crater mouth, no Skrull planet energy rays will be able to penetrate." "And so, the menace of Super Skrull is ended." " [heavy guitar] - ¶ Yo, what time is it?" "¶ It's clobberin' time" "¶ Yo, what time is it?" "¶ It's clobberin' time" " ¶ Yo, what time is it?" "..." " Don't watch, Precious." "Don't you dare."
