Galactus’ Shocking Demand: The Fantastic Four’s Child in Danger!

by

A fresh preview from The Fantastic Four: First Steps reveals the chilling reason behind Galactus targeting Earth, and it’s not a pleasant revelation. Known across the Marvel Universe for his insatiable appetite, Galactus fulfills this hunger by draining planets of their life energy. Recent indications suggest that the birth of Reed and Sue’s first child, Franklin Richards, might be central to Galactus’ current objective.

In the recently posted video on social platforms, the scene depicts the Fantastic Four (FF) holding a press conference in the Baxter Building’s lobby. During this conference, Reed Richards reveals to the media that the FF didn’t actually defeat Galactus during their space journey. He provides a grim update and eventually admits Galactus’ true intentions: “We tried to negotiate, but Galactus… he demanded an excessive payment. He wanted our child:”

The reporters grow anxious as one directly queries Dr. Richards, “‘Is everything okay?’“. However, the brilliant Reed Richards, head of the Fantastic Four and supposedly the world’s most intelligent individual, meets his gaze squarely, mirroring his own apprehension, and responds candidly, “‘I can’t say for certain.’

According to comic book lore, Franklin Richards possesses extraordinary powers that surpass any known boundaries. Such immense abilities could prove invaluable to Galactus, potentially enhancing his capacity to satiate his insatiable cosmic hunger.
