This space warping ability, I didn't see that coming. It's new, right? Though one might argue this is his true skill, expandability being just a consequence "“ and appearance, in fact "“ of the former.

But even as underlying ability, it still remains a novelty. Nothing like that was even hinted at in the previous versions of Fantastic Four, not in the least.

Dr. Storm's report reads like this. You can listen it here, but it basically says the following:

"Reed Richards, a scientific prodigy. Unfortunately his home life was not condusive to intellectual growth. I've seen it before, an ambitious mind in a hostile environment, groundbreaking ideas mistaken for delusions. He has yet to reach his full potential. With help I have faith he will get there."

Sue Storm

"SUE IS BRILLIANT AND BEAUTIFUL, INDEPENDENT AND SARCASTIC. THE POWER TO BECOME INVISIBLE AND TO GENERATE HER OWN FORCE-FIELDS CAN MAKE HER HARDER TO REACH THAN EVER"”BUT THAT WON'T STOP SOME OF HER TEAMMATES, ESPECIALLY REED, FROM TRYING."

The accompanying report goes in depth.

"Sue Storm, independent and prefers to work alone which is no surprise. She wasn't always the easiest child but she is her own person. Her mind is unique, operating at a different tempo, visualizing things the rest of us can't see. If only she would let us in, the possibilities are endless."

Johnny Storm

"A TROUBLEMAKER AND A THRILL-SEEKER, JOHNNY IS THE ROCK STAR OF THE TEAM. HIS POWERS ALLOW HIM TO SHOOT FIREBALLS, FLY AT BREAKNECK SPEEDS, AND REALLY LIGHT IT UP."

The narrated report reveals more about his personality.

"Johnny Storm, extremely bright and good-natured but unfocused with unbridled energy. His acts of defiance compensate for feelings of insecurity and at times his rebelliousness is a distraction. I need to help him see the value of his contributions. And also, teach him how to be a team player."

Ben Grimm

"A RARE BREED OF BRAWN AND HEART, BEN IS WARM, EVEN SENSITIVE, DESPITE HIS ROUGH-AND-TUMBLE UPBRINGING. HE IS ROCK-SOLID"”IN MORE WAYS THAN ONE. A LOYAL AND PROTECTIVE FRIEND, HIS STONE BODY GIVES HIM EPIC STRENGTH AND MAKES HIM VIRTUALLY INDESTRUCTIBLE."

And Dr. Storm comes in with further details:

"Ben, uncooperative, disinterested and far from a team player. Ben's abrasiveness stems from a callous upbringing and though he is despondent there is hope. As he is fiercely protective of his friends, perhaps I can break through to him by earning his loyalty, but this will be no easy task."
