For anyone whinging about Julia Garner's role in "Fantastic Four: First Steps," the "Ozark" star has a gentle suggestion: Read a comic book. An old one. By Stan Lee and John Buscema.

Shalla-Bal, first seen in “The Silver Surfer” #1 in 1968, is the female counterpart to Norrin Radd, who was featured in 2007’s “Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer.” In that film, the humanoid alien was played by Doug Jones and voiced by Laurence Fishburne.
