The Fantastic Four are probably the original prototype for a team of superheroes. Stan Lee, surely borrowing from his childhood discoveries, maybe something like Doc Savage or The Little Rascals, gave the comic world four archetypes that continue to be 're-created.'
A big strong guy who can't sweat the details. A leader who can do things that usually saves the team. The hot head, with a disruption weapon like a laser or a fireball. A mentalist who struggles to kill because of ethics. Add in a lead singer with a 2 1/2 octave range and you got a Bogus Slogan.
BS poster #57 shows the FF4 suffering the effects of Dr. Doom's V.O.R.T.E.X.I.B.L.E. A weapon so terrible...well, you gotta get the comic. Can't find that issue? Well, hanging out at a Bogus Slogan concert can make up for it. The fans at the Aces High Saloon in Biloxi, Mississippi were asked to dress up as their favorite super hero, but please, no Star Wars Stormtroopers - they're the bad guys.
