* VillainousCrush:
** Doom appears to have one for Susan, as he flirts with her when he's taken over Reed's body in "Doomed". (Incidentally, this was what tipped Susan off that something wasn't right.)
** Namor isn't precisely a villain, but he is an antagonist in the first episode he shows up, and he's clearly interested in Susan - enough to battle the Four ''again'' when they protest at her staying behind in Atlantis.
