Reed's brain and resources r so far beyond Superman that he isnt even a remote threat.The FF dont need prep. Do u realize Invisible Woman can turn objects invisible? Superman cannot fight an invisible FF. IW could also turn his retinas invisible and blind him. Then Clark is helpless to getting his ass kicked. A force field could also prevent Supes from escaping the fight. No kryptonite necessary.
Reed was able to build the machine so fast because he had already known that he could SWITCH powers within the four FF members, but he couldn't take them away.
FF don't need prep? When Superman could kill 3/4 of them outright? He's faster than thought. Do you know what that means?
He would blitz Johnny before he could say "Flame On!!", he could KO Sue before she could even think of putting up a bubble, and he could freeze/melt Reed before he even knew what hit him. Grimm would last about 3 minutes or 10 seconds, depending if Supes wanted to throw him into space--or just pound the crap out of him.
He's no stranger to invisible combatants (White Martians anyone?), and it's not like anyone in the FF doesn't need to breathe--he'd just use his hearing to pick up their heartbeat/breathing. Then he'd take 'em out--even if he was blinded he could still use his hearing to guide him.
IW forcefield holding Superman? Mebbe for a few seconds, then IW would have to let him free from the strain. Then she'd get crushed.
Supes wins 8-9/10. they only get 30 mins. and that isn't nearly enough.
Also, that's pretty cheesy saying Reed would use his time machine to get a week of prep --the topic creator gave them 30 mins and 30 minutes only.
