    Look, Galactus changes the reason he eats planets every five or ten years, let's not make this particular hill the one we die on.

    The morality of eating uninhabited planets is also iffy. I mean Earth was uninhabited for a long time after the Big Bang and before natural selection kicked in.

    Asking Galactus to eat uninhabited planets denies the possibility of natural selection from taking effect there.


    Any way you look at it the FF are hypocrites

    Nah, it's definitely better for everyone that Galactus eats Venus instead of Earth. However "Do not eat us, go eat a few Skrull planets" is definitely another issue. It is easy to make the Krakoa / Earth parallelism in this case, you choose your home instead of the people outside.

    What if someday we find a means to terraform and colonise Venus? I mean the X-Men are using Krakoa habitats to successfully terraform a settlement on Mars and the Moon. They would definitely see a single uninhabited planet swallowed by Gally as loss of land and resources that humans and mutants could use. Such land could also become homes for refugees fleeing Thanos among others.

    Yeah, but a potential resource is less valuable than current lifes.

    Plants generate oxygen so Krakoa can probably terraform Mars without problem.

    Anyway, there are already places in Mars with oxygen in Marvel, just like in the Moon.

    If anything, Galactus eating planets is the ultimate form of Natural Selection since he is a force of nature and thus choses who lives and who dies.

    The pretender god being tossed into the Crucible and dying a terrible death is one I would enjoy seeing. It will at least get me a laugh at his misery.

    Franklin is not powerless...all he would have to do it think it and Apocalypse would be laid flat.

    Galactus chose to eat Earth and Reed disagreed with the laws of natural selection then. You can’t say Galactus is necessary and say eating Earth isn’t.

    Actually I would love to see Franklin's powers come back during the fight, Franklin's toy weapons defeat Apoc and his war weapons, says thank you to the X-Men and then walks away back with his family to the Baxter Building.

    That would be cool. I remember during Dark Reign when Norman Osborn was top dog he barged into the place and thought he was going to act all tough. Franklin just wished his toy cowboy gun was real and shot him in the shoulder, This article has the scenes: Norman Osborn vs the Fantastic Four Kids

    It’s a little more complex than that ... plants need CO2 to generate the air we breathe, so there has to be a sufficient amount of CO2 in the atmosphere among other things.

    To be honest, I think Krakoa is playing everyone, and only Doug knows.
    If Krakoa feeds on mutant energies, then it has an infinite supply of them as more come to the island and can be resurrected in a matter of hours.

    I think Krakoa plans to envelope the Earth, then will be like Ego, traveling the universe and gobbling up any unfortunate souls who come to visit.

    No toy gun...just his finger. Walks in, points his index finger and drops his thumb like the hammer of a gun. Apocalypse is not dead....but hurt and bloody and needs to be carried out.

    Franklin is stone cold when he needs to be.
