Inside Kraft's laboratory, the unconscious Johnny Storm had been stuffed into a machine resembling an MRI scanner.
After a round of scans, detailed data on Johnny's body appeared on the computer screen.

As Kraft read Johnny Storm's physical report, he discovered that the Fantastic Four's mutations didn't seem to have enhanced their physiques at all. Most of the readings were average, and some were even below average...
Wait, that rock guy could hold his own against Hulk in his normal state. So was it just this guy's mutation that didn't improve his physique? Or was he such a weakling that even a mutation couldn't make up for it?
Kraft scratched his head and kept reading.
Johnny Storm's body was fundamentally no different from an ordinary human's. It simply contained a latent energy that was essentially identical to the Cosmic Storm energy data Kraft had found in the Life Foundation's database.
"Seriously, all four of them got pumped full of Cosmic Storm energy, yet every mutation was beneficial. That's not fucking scientific at all..."
Cosmic Storm energy wasn't some clean, safe, pollution-free substance. Under normal circumstances, exposure to it might not cause physical deformities, but weakened immunity, disrupted hormone balances, and the like should have been the norm.

Kraft operated the equipment to stimulate the energy inside Johnny. The disturbed energy rapidly fused with the cells in his body, transforming directly into
