comment
This action cartoon, produced by Hanna-Barbera for ABC, was among the first of several animated adaptations of the Fantastic Four comic book. Several of the Stan Lee/Jack Kirby stories from the early issues were adapted for this program. This series ran for 20 episodes, including two 10-minute shorts, until the Media Watchdogs demanded less violence in children's television.

Adapted Out
 The Fantastic Four (1967) / int_33d5b7f2
comment
Adapted Out: Ben's girlfriend, Alicia Masters, never appeared in this show.note Moreover, her role in the aforementioned Galactus episode was given to Sue. Since the episode adapting the Red Ghost's debut only runs 10 minutes, the Fantastic Four do not get to meet The Watcher in it. Instead, "It Started on Yancy Street" marks the first time the Four meet him. Likewise, when Klaw first appears, he mentions a past encounter with the FF where he was thought dead, but the person who nearly killed him, Black Panther, is neither seen nor explicitly mentioned. "The Micro World of Doctor Doom" does not have Ant-Man in it, likely because the studio that made The Marvel Superheroes already secured Hank Pym.

Pragmatic Adaptation: Due to not having the rights to Namor, Hanna-Barbera replaced him with a pair of Captain Ersatz, known as Gamma-Ray and Prince Triton, the former as Namor as a villain and the latter as Namor as a hero. Triton's domain was likewise changed from Atlantis to Pacifica, even though Atlantis is public domain.

Non-Indicative Name
 The Fantastic Four (1967) / int_6509bb9f
comment
Nonindicative Names: "The Menace of the Mole Man" adapts a comic titled, "The Return of the Mole Man!", while "The Return of the Mole Man" adapts a comic titled, "The Mad Menace of the Macabre Mole Man". The former episode's title doesn't match its comic because Hanna-Barbera had yet to adapt the first Fantastic Four issue. (When they finally did so, they left out Mole Man's scenes to boot.) Namor's heroic stand-in Triton is the ruler of Pacifica, rather than Atlantis. Despite the name change, it is by all appearances still located in the Atlantic rather than the Pacific Ocean.

Truer to the Text: Zigzagged. Coming a year after The Marvel Super Heroes, Namor's heroic stand-in Triton is the ruler of Pacifica rather than Atlantis. On the one hand, Namor's creator Bill Everett never intended for Namor's home to be Atlantis. On the other, Namor's people lived in the Antarctic Ocean, while Pacifica, despite its name, by all appearances is still located in the Atlantic.

Doom removes the heart by kidnapping Sue and the strength by turning the Thing back into human Ben, but since the Four ultimately overpowers him, he fails to "conquer all."

Happily Married: Unlike the comics, this cartoon always portrays Reed and Sue Richards as husband and wife, bar the flashbacks set before the founding of the Fantastic Four. However, the show does avoid portraying Reed's and Sue's marriage as 24/7 bliss. "Galactus" begins with Sue lamenting to Ben about how sometimes Reed spends more time with his science experiments than with her, and Ben assuring Sue that Reed still loves her.

Irony: The rights to the series are currently owned by Warner Bros., who also owns Marvel's biggest competitor DC Comics. Meanwhile Marvel itself is now owned by Disney, who acquired a backlog of animated Marvel adaptations from other companies several years prior to acquiring Marvel themselves, but wouldn't own the Fantastic Four film rights until buying what is now 20th Century Studios in 2019.

Antagonist Title: "Klaw", "Diablo", "The Red Ghost", "The Mysterious Molecule Man", "Galactus", "Blast-Starr, the Living Bomb Burst", and "Rama-Tut" all have titles consisting simply of the villain's name. Some other episodes also have titles consisting of phrases with the villain's name.

Race Lift: Prior to mutating in the creature known as Gamma-Ray, Dr. Gamma appears to be an East Asian character. Namor, the character he was adapted from, was white, having been fathered by the white Leonard McKenzie.

Limited Animation: One particularly obvious example happens in the beginning of "Invasion of the Super Skrulls": The Four are going to get zapped by the Skrulls, yet only Sue moves, waving her hands once to create a deflector shield.

Expy: Since the rights to Namor the Sub-Mariner were already claimed by The Marvel Super Heroes, Prince Triton and Gamma-ray were created in his place with the former for Namor the Hero and the latter for Namor the Villain respectively.

Laser-Guided Amnesia
 The Fantastic Four (1967) / int_e7b0229a
comment
Laser-Guided Amnesia: "Invasion of the Super Skrulls" has an example. After the Fantastic Four stop the Super Skrull from taking over the world, he proclaims that he can not return to his home planet, lest the king of the Skrulls punish him for his failure. Reed allows him to stay on Earth under the condition that he turns himself into a cow, then lets Reed erase his memories of being a Skrull. Note that this differs greatly from the aftermath of the Four's first encounter in the comics with the Super Skrull (but not from their first encounter with Skrulls in general).

Adaptation Species Change

comment
Adaptation Species Change: The stand-ins for Namor (who were created because Hanna-Barbera couldn't obtain the rights to the character due to them already being claimed by Grantray-Lawrence Animation for use in The Marvel Super Heroes) are different species from the original character. Prince Triton is a full Homo Mermanus instead of half as indicated by his blue skin and not being able to be outside of water. Dr. Gamma is a fully human scientist who is mutated into some huge purple sea creature with a fin on his head.

Title Montage

comment
Title Montage: The intro plays one following a depiction of the Four gaining their powers from the cosmic rays. Credits Montage: The end credits reel basically superimposes text over the above intro note Which was a regular occurrence in many (but not all) of Hanna-Barbera's shows until at least the mid-1970s..

Never Say "Die": Zigzagged; the words "die" and "kill" are used on occasion, but the characters refer to actual demises with such terms as "finished" and "done for".

Since the episode adapting the Red Ghost's debut only runs 10 minutes, the Fantastic Four do not get to meet The Watcher in it. Instead, "It Started on Yancy Street" marks the first time the Four meet him.
