Impossible Man
The Impossible Man is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. He first appeared in Fantastic Four #11 (February 1963), and was created by writer Stan Lee and writer/artist Jack Kirby. The Impossible Man has been featured in other Marvel-endorsed products such as action figures, arcade and video games, animated television series, and merchandise such as trading cards.
The Impossible Man is a Poppupian from the planet Poppup and has shapeshifting abilities. The Impossible Man character is mainly used for comedy, portrayed as a lonely, attention seeking alien that often annoy those around him, especially the Fantastic Four. At one point he was able to defeat Galactus by tricking him. Over the years Impossible Man created a wife called The Impossible Woman and also had a son named Adolf Impossible.
The Impossible Man has made various appearances in Marvel Cartoon series, including the 1978 and 1994 Fantastic Four series as well as Fantastic Four: World's Greatest Heroes. He has also guest starred on The Super Hero Squad Show, Avengers Assemble and Hulk and the Agents of S.M.A.S.H..
The Impossible Man first appeared in Fantastic Four #11 (Feb. 1963), and was created by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby.
When the Impossible Man first appeared, he was different from previous guest stars in that he was not a villain. The team first meets him at the Flamingo restaurant when they are summoned there to investigate a disturbance. Written by Lee to be a prankster and hedonist, the Impossible Man claimed to belong to the alien race of Poppupians from planet Poppup in the "Tenth Galaxy", who all share a collective consciousness and the ability to shapeshift, as their planet is so dangerous they have the ability to evolve very quickly. Seeking amusement, the character visits Earth for a vacation by turning himself into a spaceship, talking of a Poppup Tourist Bureau. After finding the superhero team the Fantastic Four and realizing nobody else on Earth has his power (therefore concluding he is the most powerful being on Earth), he constantly harasses them until they decide to ignore him and tell other people to do the same, forcing the Impossible Man to leave as he finds Earth so boring, and saying Earth will never get their tourist business. He gets his name after the Thing claims he is "impossible".
The character does not appear again until 1976. Acting as a deus ex machina in a storyline involving the cosmic entity and world-devourer Galactus, the Impossible Man convinces the character to consume his homeworld Poppup instead of Earth. The Impossible Man then makes a humorous appearance at the offices of Marvel Comics, where he causes havoc until Stan Lee promises to give him his own title.
