Crystal (Crystalia Amaquelin〔''Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe'' #3 (1983)〕) is a fictional superhero appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. Crystal first appeared in ''Fantastic Four'' #45 (December 1965) and was created by writer Stan Lee and artist Jack Kirby. Within the Marvel Universe, Crystal is a member of a fictional subspecies of humanity known as Inhumans, who develop superhuman abilities when exposed to Terrigen Mist due to genetic modifications made by the Kree. The character possesses the ability to psionically control the four classical elements: earth, fire, air, and water and, by extension, various other natural materials and phenomena such as metals and electricity. Crystal was the first character to be identified as an Inhuman,〔''Fantastic Four'' #45, December 1965〕 and is one of the most prominent Inhuman characters. Crystal is a princess of the Inhuman Royal Family and sister of Medusa, Queen of the Inhumans. She often appears with her canine companion, Lockjaw. The character has regularly appeared as a main character in several comic book titles, including various incarnations of ''Inhumans'' as well as ''Fantastic Four'' and ''Avengers''. The character is unique in her affiliation with all three of these groups. She is also associated, to a lesser extent, with the X-Men due to the character's previous marriage to Quicksilver, which resulted in their daughter, Luna. Crystal has also appeared in various other Marvel media such as television series and video games, as well as merchandise such as trading cards and action figures. ==Publication history== Crystal first appeared in ''Fantastic Four'' #45 (December 1965), written by Stan Lee and illustrated by Jack Kirby, titled "Among Us Hide...The Inhumans". When asked, "Who created the Inhumans, you or Stan Lee?" in a 1968 interview for ''Excelsior'' magazine, Jack Kirby replied, "I did." Like other early Fantastic Four characters, there is debate about how much Stan Lee and Jack Kirby each contributed to the characters' creation. Throughout her many appearances, Crystal has been depicted as brave, intelligent, and compassionate. While she is undoubtedly very kind and emotional, this is in stark contrast to her remarkable power, and she is more than capable of defending herself and others. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Crystal (comics)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
