    Also I acknowledge F4X was **** in every regard but I stand firmly in the fact had they called the Richards, and not just popped up with a vanguard of Krakoa's best that all could have been avoided and Kitty had no right taking the kid off the premises F4 had warranted reactions IMO.

    Gotta keep that victim complex going!

    Johnny asked the kid a question, nothing more nothing less. Anyone who's reading into it more than that is projecting and actively looking to be offended. That said, I'm happy Franklin's powers are gone. Maybe they can actually make him a good character now.

    Some X-fans seem obsessed with finding any reason to read into the FF being bigots and monsters it seems

    Agreed Franklin is a little **** who more often than not constantly preached about his powers made him better than those around him, and throughout his little God complex his family has actively stood by him and reaffirmed that powers or no powers they'll always love him that's it, now that he's lost that all he has is his family and that's okay I'm not seeing any problematic actions with the Richards that even implies bigotry they love their son.

    But don't you get it any reaction to teenage stuff other than immediate understanding and agreement means you're a bigot who hates minorities and the writer is too!

    You think asserting the FF are now inexplicably bigots isn't a reach?

    It's good to know that y'all are here to let everyone know that any experience or interpretation of something that doesnt match your own is bullshit drama-queen reaching and making things up, and not at all valid or worthy of discussion.

    It really helps streamline conversation. I apologize for cluttering the thread with unapproved thought. I should know better.
    I read your original post. I agree with what you said. That was your interpretation and it was valid. I'm gay and, while I know my family loves me. I heard several homophobic and fucked up comments about gay people when I was a teenager.

    I read the issue and I totally got where you were coming from. When I read issue #25, Franklin did seem like "odd man out." Please continue to post your thoughts. I thought they were insightful and added to my reading of the issue.

    I don't think the post was calling them "bigots", however Reed did mask Franklin's X-gene. That carries a lot of narrative weight.

    Right! As if the FF would ever be allowed to be written as such.

    As a FF fan, I can tell you that seeing Franks suddenly in an x-uniform and to see him take a sudden turn to the x-world is surprising. Seeing his family react similarly would be expected. Franklin is in a new place in life and is acting differently than he ever has. So I agree, anyone trying to make this some ridiculous anti mutant bigotry is reaching hard.

    God...if they did this I would quit marvel. Killing a kid and then bringing him back. I would love to hear the explanation to reed and Susan. How they describe it. They don’t just euthanize the person...which in itself is bad...but you have to fight apocalypse in hand to hand combat then get a body from sinister. It sounds insane when texted aloud.

    Good lord get a grip, no one is cancelling the FF. In fact Johnny’s reaction is realistic.

    Do you (or anyone) recall why Reed masked Franklin's X-gene? IMO Franklin should have flat out told Kitty to get bent and gone home. Too bad DoFP is an alternate timeline...

    To protect him from people who might want to harm him, as usual. There was more but I've kinda blocked out most of that miniseries, sorry.
