Curious how Franklin Richards ended up with one of Marvel’s most powerful forces in The Fantastic Four: First Steps? The newborn wields the Power Cosmic, an energy so immense it once sustained Galactus and now fuels Franklin’s reality-shaping abilities.

First Steps" introduced the most powerful being in the MCU -Franklin Richards – and was pretty nonchalant about it.

In a 1982 arc by John Byrne, Franklin gets frustrated trying to solve a Rubik’s Cube and uses his powers to age himself into an adult body, though he couldn’t actually gain more emotional maturity. He winds up going back to being a kid, placing restrictions on his own abilities to allow him to have something of a normal childhood.
