elected officials will cave to a multi-million dollar lobbying
campaign.
Plot Summary: Marvel's first family of superheroes, The Fantastic Four, meets their greatest

Four's mythology, so is the Fantasticar, the flying transport vehicle
that originally debuted on the pages of Fantastic Four #3 in 1962,
where it earned the nickname "the flying bathtub." However,
as technology has changed, the Fantasticar, too, has evolved through
many different versions in the past 40+ years up to its current sleek
and streamlined design...
