The Terrifics Reading Guide

The Terrifics

The Terrifics is a superhero team in the DC Comics universe, often regarded as a modern take on the classic concept of the “Fantastic Four.” Formed after the “Dark Nights: Metal” event, the team primarily consists of Mr. Terrific, Plastic Man, Metamorpho, and Phantom Girl, each bringing unique abilities and perspectives to their collective adventures. Their dynamic is characterized by a blend of humor, scientific inquiry, and moral quandaries, often addressing themes of identity and belonging. The group operates out of the mysterious Terrifics Lab, which becomes a central hub for their missions. Together, they tackle cosmic threats while exploring interpersonal relationships and teamwork challenges.
