Fantastic Four (2022) Issue 18 by Ryan North.
▸ THE SECRET OF FRANKLIN RICHARDS! Franklin Richards has been an immortal, a god, an Omega-level mutant - and more. He's created life, entire universes, and been worshipped for it. He's ended life and been cussed out with just as much sincerity. But there's something else Franklin Richards has done - and is doing - that nobody else in the universe knows about. Also in this issue: An invisible asteroid threatening all life on Earth and the all-new S.H.I.E.L.D.!

You telling me if Franklin actually controls the universe, he's been screwing with Spider-Man and his life all this time?!
Franklin has the writers mindset. He's so powerful that they've merged in ideals.
Why Franklin!!! 😭
Some friend
nah I like the idea that he's been watching the universe and limiting the biggest world ending disaster, like he scrolls through the universe and look for the biggest threats for either his home or the universe as a whole, if the heroes can handle it, he wont step in, if they cant he'll step in, and the comic proved his calucations aren't 100%, but good enough to be seen as reliable
Bruhhhhh
When Galactus calls you Master, you're the boss of bosses.
I dont think the reason he called him that is due to what u r thinking
@@afro_princess1671 Not dirty just god awful powerful.
He's the Final Boss
@@khathaway414 a what?
@@afro_princess1671 The Final Boss!!
Madara: "what will you do about the second one, Susan" 😂
Than Susan puts an invisible shield around his brain causing a stroke
Good one 😂
@@johnlawful2272 then the Thing runs frantically as he sees the floor beneath Sue cracking and jumps towards her just in time to save her as a Susuano blade hits him sending both him and Susan flying. Sue is knocked unconscious and Ben is winded but gets up. _Madara comes from the crack underground while his shadow clone disappears..._ "Interesting power...I'll admit you're not as weak as I thought...You on the other hand, your body, seems to be stronger than that fence-sitter brat's ultimate golem...hmm now...what can the others do?"
Mutants in the 60’s: “Behold! A man with wings!” Every modern mutant: omnipotent, controls space, time, reality, etc.
Plus some mutant abilities have been upgraded to interesting yet kinda weird degrees. Though it depends on source material I guess
The X-Men are absolutely ridiculous anymore. Jean using her telepathy to travel/communicate through time. 🙄
@@RevSinkiller wait what?
ah that statements merchant character @@RevSinkiller
Namord?
Can't believe they tried giving Franklin the explanation of "Bro, you were in Mutant-Face the whole time. Not cool."
That was so shit. Like all these years of him being a mutant to just say "no he wasn't. He was pretending." Like we didn't see him do all the things he did with mutant powers
@@CasualREDACTEDso Franklin is back a mutant ?
@@yaslembanks8923 apparently. Who knows how long it will last because all these comic writers suck
Ummm...ok so Franklin is doing the mutant hokey pokey.....
@@yaslembanks8923 had the same question.
It’s impressive that Franklin secretly used his powers to avert disaster and save his family and the world while making sure that he will use his powers once a year to make sure that he can control his powers and continue to become a kid. Also, Franklin being mentioned as a mutant.
Àt least one comma here and there, please.
I think he is stealing the better stories from us, so the writers don't have to think too hard, oh Franklin averted that from happening one night. It was too wild of a story to let anyone know. It won Seventeen Oscars and two EGOT's, became #1 best Seller at the New York Times, Disney was renamed the House Marvel for one year based on those stories yet "The World May Never Know".
Yeh, we need to see "Franklin runs Marvel"
Kevin Feige reports to Franklin’s office.
A kid running things would justify everything 😂
Yeah that sounds hype
Hickman is like, the definitive Franklin writer. He really showed his true potential and the extent of what he can do with his powers .
This is why the Fantastic Four is so damn relevant! The F.F. isn't just Four, She-Hulk, Spider-Man, Luke Cage, Crystal and so many more are part of the Fantastic Four. Even Dr. Doom.
Fr I know it might sound corny but I wouldn't mind if they changed theyre name to Fantastic Family
@@AntonioDues It's like X-Men, they ain't all Men.
Nah you're wrong their fantastic four. Not fantastic four and other heroes. They are literally called the fantastic four.
@@Muftiusul JMO, I miss arguing about Comic Book's! 🤣
You're a Dr Doom!!!🤬
You wake up one morning and the cast of bleach 1000 blood war are all 250 feet tall they're fighting each other across the surface of world and everybody is being killed (got me off guard😂)
😂😂😂
Having read that and watched the anime that is some frightening shit. 250 foot tall Az Nodt or Zaraki. Last thing you want to hear is “Bankai”
@@mattryan7124 soi fon's bankai would destroy the world lol
@@doombottv6524so many things from that franchise would destroy the world lol. Imagine enjoying some coffee and then Yamamoto goes Bankai and you fry😂
Why are they tall like that?
Susan Storm is a green lantern in Marvel. Don't tell me that she is not! She has made swords, knives, horses here, and many other constructs. Susan Storm is a green lantern in Marvel!
But that snow bunny is more useful than Jean Grey. Lol
She is not. She has no energy projection abilities. Green lanterns has energy projection ability and can make light construct. Not saying they are better (they are not), just saying they are different.
You're a Green Lantern in Marvel!!!! 🤬
@@kcopara1so she is part of the ultraviolet core
@@TODavis__you're joking, right? Let me guess. You've only watched the horrible 90s X-Men show and have never picked up an X-Men comic book.
Franklin Richards with the great stories again.
I like the idea that Franklin gives up his powers until he's ready for them. If anyone had Franklin's powers they would go mad if they had access to them 24/7.
*snap of fingers “no longer mad”
Darnn its been 12 yrs since the Franklin Richard control marvel universe vid came out lol time flies by fast 😅
I like the fact that they are making Franklin a mutant again, and keeping him as ridiculously OP as ever.
He’s never not been ridiculously OP lmfao
I still didn’t understand how this Issue proved that is a mutant again
Franklin Richards is probably one of my top 5 favorite comic book characters. A video discussing that theory would be awesome!
OP lovers... Dont see the intrigue, where's the notion of adventure with these type of characters?
@@IStevenSeagal exactly
To hear a bleach reference from one of my favorite KZheadrs has to be one of the greatest things in my life
You be you boo❤
Man, that just sounds really sad. Are you okay?
Gave me a stiffy aswell
Now I fully expect him to talk about Franklin Richards going Bankai
It's also a comic 😂
Probably the fastest i've ever clicked on rob's vid *looks at 47 seconds*
Galactus got Sue Richards pregnant with his "cosmic control rod"??? 🤨
Wasn’t it Annihilus
Annihulis has (Or had.) the CCR.
😂
Ah so that’s why reeds allowed to call him by his real name 🤔
@@alexpaul4144 - No, Galactus just has a thing for Reed's rod.
250 ft kenpachi fighting over Compton sounds like a baller time
You know Legion shares all of Franklin's traits and Jean at her full power and true self surpass both with ease. There's so many heros on Earth that could've beaten the asteroid threat.
DUDE MAKE A VIDEO ON FRANKLIN CONTROLLING THE UNIVERSE THAT SOUNDS F**KING AMAZING
Franklin Richards being the only one to survive into the next universe means he’ll have the same origin then as Galactus does now. Whether he’ll be a devourer of worlds like him remains to be seen.
He'll be merged with Galactus
My favorite part of every video Rob talks about galactic resurrection is when he says TO ME MY GALACTUS. You can tell he honestly loves that series
This has gotta be Marvel prepping us to see him in Live Action, and I bet that means they're gonna make him a Mutant there for simplicity. We are so back!
Naw, he'll be lame in live action, bekuz they can't make him op or that will be a boring movie
ALRIGHT, IMMA SAY IT! So if Franklin is behind the universe, and most i assume the events that transpire. Is HE WHO I HAVE TO THANK FOR PAUL!
WOW..!Franklin Richards is older than me. Franklin Richards has been a little boy in a comic book. All of my life, and I will be 54 this year...
Stagnant stories
You have the best breakdowns of comics on KZhead, thank you so much!
So we've got Onslaught back as a multiversal threat, Essex as Enigma being a multiversal threat and now Franklin reintroduced. Meaning that Marvel's just given themselves a deus ex machina solution to a narrative hole they know they're digging themselves into.
Now Rob, you know Iron Man was in "Heroes Reborn". That's when his suits started to look like armor,no muscles in it. That was good!!!
“Blonde Jesus” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This feels like the writers are giving us a bit of a tease to see how fans react to Franklin coming back. If there's a positive response he'll come back, if not they'll just casually forget about him and his yearly thing. I hope they bring him back. I've always loved the super OP characters and seeing what writers do with them.
.......Rob mentioning Bleach thousand year blood war = automatic thumbs up
0:00 Ah. I thought you meant Matthew Malloy returned from the void.
Right! Richards was revealed that he wasn't a Mutant.
Like I said in a previous video…Rob calls a lot of people “The God Mutant”…..but it’s Legion🤦🏾♂️
@@lou98tFranklin, Vulcan, Mad Jim Jaspers, Hyperstorm and Matthew Malloy exists.
@@IStevenSeagal yep and even then Legion was JUST called the most powerful mutant by prof X after he allowed him to feel his true power, and then stated that his power dwarfs any one individuals power. And even though Franklin said he was one of the most powerful beings in the universe, Legion was stated by the Earth Machine to be “possibly the most powerful being to exist”…not “in the universe”….but TO EXIST. That means in all of marvel, not just the 616 universe. Legion is like that, if you aren’t caught up just say that. Legion has universal and multiversal feats now. A lot of people clearly don’t know how strong he is.
@@lou98t Must be a temporary powerup and not a regular thing, because that type of amp is too big for his briches. He's usually no way that powerful on the regular. With that being said, those mutants are superior to Legion on the basis, and include Onslaught too if you want to count him as a mutant.
Make the video! Yessss! Much appreciated
Me: watching Korra Me: notices the thumbnail Me: "Out loud" WHICH ONE ROB. (secretly hoping for The Marquis of Death Clyde Wyncham.)
The Marquis of Death was DOPE
@@gingy30More importantly it's has been mentioned that he could kill Franklin with but a gesture or a thought. He defeated molecule man with absolutely no effort and he was very nearly beyonder level. Somehow I think they will bring him back as an entity that has taken the place of TOAA, he might be the crown being that we saw. Everyone thinks it's Dominion but it hasn't been officially confirmed yet.
Did you like the new Avatar series?
@@markopecinovic4475 eh it was alright it was exactly what I expected
Great video brother!
15:05 - Nicholas Scratch has that Super Smash Ball pinned to his cloak 👌
Finally he’s back been waiting for this so much.
yo that 1000 year blood war arc was amazing and im so happy to hear you reference it lol
Pffft. Hulk is going to eat him.
Where is the God mutant LEGION
He got killed before fall of x I think, they had to remove him cause he could fix it all too easily
would 100% keep an eye out for the franklin richards controls universe vid.
Thankyou Rob. Im relaxin havin my coffee after my mourning workout, about to hit the sauna, and needed another vid to pass the time, and you delivered 😂 👊😎💙
Sounds you have a good life... Or weekend.
God mutant? Oh that must be Franklin Lee. Frankbron James. Frankira Goatiyama.
Papa Franku
1000 foot tall Rangiku 👀
I was waiting only for your video on Franklin 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤
Awesome video! the part about Franklin controlling the universe is amazing.
"Franklin Richards is back" Siiiiiiiiiiggggggghhhhhh and here we go.....
What does it matter if he's a mutant or not? Reality warping is reality warping whether it's magic, mutant, tech or whatever
Because mutants are AWESOME.
They will need Franklin when Matthew Malloy returns
Definitely want to see that video!
Onslaught is confusing because if they make it like Xavier and Magneto's hatred and bad sides that Xavier had in his head manifested into a new personality, ok, I can understand that. What I don't understand is things like how can Onslaught make himself a body unless he infected Franklin Richard's mind and took control of his body and his power to use that reality warpping power to make a physical body for himself that he could inhabit just like in Batman where Zur En Arr Batman made Failsafe and put his consciousness and personally into Failsafe to give himself a physical body. That is what I don't get, how Onslaught was able to make himself a body. I also don't get how Onslaught has Magneto's powers if he is just a psyonic being with the mindset of Magneto and Xavier and the power of Xavier with telepathy. I didn't think that the minds or mental consciousness of individuals would allow you to take their powers, I thought that Onslaught would just be a telepathic being that went around and took mental control of super strong individuals to make a physical body for himself and give himself whatever powers that he wants. Can someone explain all that about Onslaught to me, please? If they did that, then it would be better to retcon or rewrite the origin of Onslaught as a separate personality that use powers of others to make himself a body and make himself more powerful.
AS ALWAYS GREAT VIDEO , yes Please make the video about Franklin controlling the universe, would definitely like to see it
Love to see a video of you talking about Franklin controlling the Marvel universe Rob. Great job as always
Lol I actually laughed out loud when u gave the bleach tybw metaphor. That was good
I don't remember his name, but the artist that's working on this - I think - was the same that did the Gambit and Rogue series recently. Top notch stuff and I'm glad FF is getting some love there.
cool video thnx for making it I would love a Franklin being marvel god video
Im leaning towards naming my first son Franklin, of course the missus wont go for it, but if i had my way, thats my go to. The fantastic four story you narrated sealed it for me, when you mentioned after several hours at the end, in the most epic moment ever, and in your story telling history - to me my galactus! - i friggin love that moment, my man 👊😎💙
You put "God Mutant" in a lot of titles. Not complaining, just saying I was looking for the onslaught video you posted and this one poped up :)
YES! We NEED a video on this fan theory... DO IT!
Hell yeah, make that video!!
Yes Rob we do want to see you explain how Franklin controls the universe, any excuse to hear your silky smooth voice ;) Also, can you do a Catch up on everything Green Lantern? We haven't had anything in years!
Yes. I want you to make that video about Franlkin Richards controlling the Marvel Universe, plz. Also, great video!
He made it lol
We need that Franklin video Rob
Nice video @rob, you' kind have to make a video about franklin secretly controlling the marvel universe now.
You are a totally brilliant storyteller
I would love that video it would be so cool to here a theory that large
Yes! Make that video bro!
Omg Rob, this was everything.
We all knew you already made that video about Franklin controlling the Marvel Universe. Upload that today! 😅
I think you should do a video of Franklin controls the Universe! I would enjoy and hearing everything that been added, removed, changed and retconned since 12 years ago. 😊
Franklin Richards: Occam's Razor
YES! Please make (or remake) that video "Franklin Richards secretly controls the Marvel Universe" I would love to that.
I declare that Rob’s favorite moment in comics is Franklin & Peter talking, whether he likes to admit it or not.
And yes Rob, you should DEFINITELY do a video about how Franklin controls the Marvel Universe, its the only explanation for Marvel Time and all weird stuff that happens since then. I've been thinking about this theory for years, the Fantastic Four Great American Novel website gives a lot of information on the subject, but the info in the site is dated, as is in your video from 12 years ago, because since then a lot of information about this came out. For me this is canon. They are going to use him to reboot the universe and bring back realism to Marvel Comics, and maybe connected between all mediums (tv, movies, comics, games, etc)
Franklin Richards, WHOOORAH! Cool, but Can we get that Resurrection of Magneto issue 3 coverage tho????
Franklin Richards is my favorite character & would love another video. Also wouldn’t mind one about his sister
Yes, please do that video! And remaster the Onslaught saga PLEASE!
Great video 👍🏿
I love how the simplest explanation is invisible asteroids....
Would love a video on Franklin Richard’s!
I so much want a Franklin Richards vs Mr. Manhattan Crossover
Please make a new Franklin controls the universe vid. ALSO A CYCLOPS CHARACTER REVIEW FROM XMEN 97 CAUSE MAAAAAN so good
Heroes Reborn was actually my introduction to Marvel comics, my dad is a big FF fan, and explained to me all the characters and their powers, it was a great bonding experience. So, since Franklin was an integral part of that story, he was technically the character who first opened the Marvel universe to me. Also, that Bleach quip made me cackle like a caffeinated hyena!
So awesome video…but it just popped in my head…has the story Dark Knight of Steel ever finish??? I loved that story 😂
Let's Not forget the young lady from " the worst man ever " Miranda, she told Bailey she keeps the universe as it is, and she reset it after Bailey exploded.
16:30 honestly that would make a good meta comic like an elseworld story non-canon
Make the video. Would love to see how far(in years) the story would go. That Franklin creates the Marvel universe
I would love to see that video, Rob
5:47 Crow T Robot, is that you
His wife/girlfriend Rachael Summers has the same powers levels due to being the host of the Phoenix. Don't forget the Days of Future Past crossover, his ghost went to the past and to save his family and save Rachael. At the end he passed his memories to his younger self. The same with Nate Grey too could match his powers by tapping into it and maybe Hope Summers can match him too because she can mimic his powers and powerful enough to keep&use it.
I just bought FF 1-59 after the heroes reborn saga, it’s interesting as they are just finding out about franklins powers as a young kid. I’m only on #16 but enjoying it so far.
Totally would like to see a video of what Franklin Richards might have been doing. I wonder if that will shed new light on what hes capable of. Like can he essentially power himself up to be even multiversal.
I will watch any video Rob makes.. More so if it is about the Marvel GOAT, Franklin...
Yes, please make the Franklin Richards controls the marvel universe video!
Yes, please make that video! 🙏 😊
Rob is a Bleach fan!? Dope!!
You have to make a new Franklin video man!
yes I would love to see that video
