1900+75=1973. To Reed, at least. Well, it's a good thing that his job doesn't depend on being precise with numbers...I mean, it's not rocket science, is it?

Oh. Well, that explains that.

73, 75, heck, close enough for government work right?
Oh Reed.
Shouldn't it be 1901 + 75 = 1976?
Pedantically yours...
Gosh, no wonder that "fake Thor" of his in Civil War came back so messed up...Then again, I'm not sure Stan Lee ever had a Bullpen Bulletins section called "The Mighty Marvel Fact Checkers," eh?
And this is to say nothing of his future Calculus.
"Wait, it says DON'T round up all the unregistered heroes and put them in prison! Stupid decimal place..."
And to think he suggested Doom was off by a few decimals in his calculations. I'm starting to wonder if he "corrected" Victor's math now.
you'd have to spend three whole quarters of century just to reunite all the bullshit reed richards has been sayng since 1964.
i mean... since going to space picnics till marvel zombies. gotcha?
I'm more amused about how he is so familiar with 1900.
So how old is Reed now?
Well, he fought in WW2 while Sue waited at home. At LEAST 85.
Pffft, fools!
Richards is merely exibiting yet another pedestrian application of one of DOOM's many great triumphs!
In an effort to aid Latverian economy, DOOM manipulated various nations into eliminating minor pieces from their currencys, luring them with the promise of overcharging using DOOM's patented: ROUNDING-UP METHOD!
That's also why DOOM never leaves home without his American Express. No mark-ups for plastic.
HAHAHAHAHA!!! DOOM wins again!
Suuurrreeeeee.
Squirrel Girl, Victor.
Squirrel Girl.
A little bit of research has revealed many other standardized results of DOOM's machinations.
Lining-up, waiting-up, and six car pile-ups. That last one was a bit of a eureka moment.
I heard DOOM also revisited rounding-up as a method of herding fools -- to their deaths!
DOOM wins again!!!
AHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
That's nice.
Tippy Toe says "Hi".
