The Cosmic Cube already has FFWGCM in its chronology, but in an earlier spot (time travel is involved).

If you read the dialogue carefully, I believe the famous Kirby monsters aren't actual appearances of the characters but instead projections of them created by Mr. Fantastic.

Then do we need entries for the duplicate constructs of Fin Fang Foom, Blip, It, and I suppose Xemnu and Sporr?

No, because it's actually the members of the Fantastic Four who are animating giant projections of the monsters. Reed's machine created essentially giant mech suits in the shape of the Kirby monsters for the Fantastic Four to battle giant Doctor Doom in.

In fact, Mr. Fantastic uses his machine to scan comic book images of the 4 monsters. Not even photos of the monsters but a comic book artist's interpretation of them. :lol:

In H@ 5, was Hulk fighting the actual monsters (Diablo, Taboo, Groot, Goom, Blip) or copies thereof? I can't remember. They are listed as the actual monsters in the current project.

They were clones or copies created by Xemnu.

So does this mean that the entries of these monsters (Diablo, Taboo, Groot, Goom and Blip) should be modified and H@ 5 moved to new entries for "Diablo Clone (or whatever)" etc. for each of the monsters?

Yes, they should, in my opinion.
Incredible Hulk Annual #5, Page 4 wrote:Months of research have revealed that years ago, the Earth was visited by alien beings--creatures of phenomenal powers and abilities--but the United States government has kept the existence of those extra-terrestrial visitations top secret! It was a simple matter for me to duplicate the deadliest of those aliens and contain them in my gamma teleport chambers!
