The audio log "The Thing Voicemail" has the Thing attempt to contact Reed Richards (Mister Fantastic), but the call goes straight to voicemail. The Thing expresses how he prefers having a neutral stance regarding the Superhuman Registration Act, feeling that the law is wrong, but also that he doesn't want to fight the government. The Thing becomes unavailable at end of the first act, eventually becoming playable again after completing the mission Guard Duty: Road Work. This voicemail serves as a reference to Fantastic Four Volume #3, Issue #539, which took place during the "Civil War" comic miniseries.
