Franklin's powers
Regardless if his Parents were altered by cosmic rays before he was conceived Franklin would still be a mutant. Made evident in House of M where he was a Mutant patient of Emma Frost and apparently conceived before Reed and Sue travelled into space.- However, having "Mutate" parents possibly enhanced his abilities to reality warping levels.
Odin was the one who really destroyed Galactus.
this is a WMG for Rise of the Silver Surfer. Lets face it the Silver Surfer really didnt have the required energy or strength to take down a FRIGGIN SWIRLING BALL OF DOOM that could destroy planets by almost just thinking it.To boot it was Galactus his/itself that gave the Surfer his Power Cosmic in the 1st place, also its doubtful that Galactus would really give him enough cosmic energy that the Surfer could possibly use against him. So the only logical conclusion is that Anthony Hopkins Odin from the Thor film is the one being powerful enough to take out a omnipowerful creature like Galactus pretty easily.
As it states in the Thor WMG the Asguardians are clearly on a technical and power base at par with Time Lords also the film itself stated that for unknown eons Asguard protected Earth and countless other planets for so long they were worshipped as gods by some species (including humans). So Odin probably saw Galactus attacking Earth and the Surfers heroic sacrifice so he used a Cosmic Tesseract Cube to blow Galactus's gas based ass into oblivion.
However the Fantastic Four or noone else on earth saw this so everyone simply assumed it was the Surfer.
The Fantastic Four are actually anarchists
Look at their logo in the movie - it almost looks like the circled A, doesn't it? Hence, Doctor Doom may be a Strawman Political standing for every authoritarian (read: non-anarchist) government.Dr. Doom is the most arrogant man in the world...
...but if there was a chart Reed Richards would take the number 2 spot.- Doom is definately the most arrogant man in the world, that's not guessing, that's fact. As for number 2, I guessing Tony Stark just beats Reed.
- On one hand, Doom appears to be the most arrogant man in the world, with Namor in second place. On the other hand, none of the two is arrogant enough to call himself 'Mr. Fantastic'.
- I don't know,J. Jonah Jameson seems like an obvious candidate, but that's just me.
The Fantastic Four got their powers on an attempted moon flight in 1961.
They're still roughly the same age in the present day because they routinely time travel. They'll spend a few days on an adventure, then jump ahead a week or two. Doom's machine to contact his mother...
- Didn't work. His calculations really were flawed and it blew up in his face.
- Didn't work. His calculations were correct but it's impossible to contact the "nether world" because it either doesn't exist or is totally beyond the reach of technology.
- Didn't work. Doom was right to mistrust Richards, who sabotaged it for fear of the damage it would do if it were fully activated.
- Worked. It exploded because it was channeling hellfire.
- Worked. But it didn't have the right shielding.
- Worked. Doom's face was scarred when a being from the other side (possibly Mephisto) touched his face and "marked" him as evil.
- Worked. His face wasn't scarred, but he saw what was being done to his mother, went insane and destroyed the machine.
It's always a Doombot
Victor von Doom has been dead for years and every time the Fantastic Four or any other hero meet Doom, it's a Doombot. It's already canon that the Doombots are programmed to believe they are the real Dr Doom, and are so well-made it's practically impossible to tell they are robots. So, the human Doom is dead and "Dr Doom" is just a bunch of Doombots running around, each one thinking it's the real one. Dr. Doom can instantly substitute any Doombot at will.
About to die? Switches places with a Doombot elsewhere. Wants to be somewhere one of his Doombots are? BAM! He's there. It's a type of Sympathetic Magic using his likeness as a foci.- Unlike everything else he does, he will never, ever monologue this. He even trains himself not to think about it to avoid telepaths.
Rebooted FF movie series will take place in The '60s.
It has been announced that FF movies will get a reboot, and that it will take place in the same universe with X-Men movies. Since the last X-Men movie is set in The '60s, and one of the upcoming ones will take place in The '70s, it would make sense to place the FF movies in the same periods.- Potentially jossed as Days of Future Past involves both the 60s and present day X-Men teams.
- Also, the use of Time Travel may make this unnecessary.
- Jossed. Takes place in the present.
The Michael B. Jordan rumors are just a prank
They're parodying the last time the Storm sibling were cast as people of 2 different ethnicities.- Jossed, he is indeed playing the Human Torch.
- Potentially Jossed since it has been stated that the reboot will not take place in the same universe as X-Men.
Franklin doesn't want to grow up.
- Due to Comic-Book Time, Franklin has aged slower than anyone else in the Marvel Universe. Since Franklin is a reality warper who can't entirely control his powers, the explanation is simple. He enjoys being a little boy. And nobody has noticed the discrepancy because he doesn't want them to. He probably doesn't even consciously realize he's doing it.
- Valeria might be clever enough to notice it, though. It would be typical of her not to tell anyone.
Skrulls change their height as casually as they change their clothes.
- When the Skrulls were first introduced, they were very short and grotesque-looking, being archetypical "Little Green Men." Over the years, they've come to be portrayed as much more humanoid (their women in particular), albeit with pointy ears and bumpy chins; but occasionally an artist will take them back to their more goblinesque visual roots without explanation. But an explanation is simple enough for a race of shapeshifters. While an individual Skrull probably keeps his facial features constant enough to remain recognizable, more general aspects of his appearance like height and body proportions are basically arbitrary, like a human choosing an outfit out of the closet each morning.
Dr. Doom isn't a real doctor.
- He calls himself Dr. Doom because it sounds cool. He doesn't have a PhD.
- Confirmed, at least in the comics. Doom never finished his doctorate before the explosion that scarred his face, but later forced the University of Latveria to give him an honorary doctorate so that the could call himself "Doctor" Doom.
The Puppet Master was actually killed off in the 1994 cartoon.
- Even with the scene of Philip Masters vanishing after falling out the window, the shot of his puppet's crown falling off and hitting the pavement and Reed's statement of not finding the villain's body coming off as a bit forced make his fate seem rather suspect. Most likely, the Puppet Master was supposed to die, but they had to change it to him disappearing mysteriously at the last minute because of censorship concerns over featuring death in a kids' cartoon.
If the super heroes let Dr. Doom have his way, the entire 616 universe would be a peaceful place to live.
- If Doom succeeds in ruling the world, he will find a way to eradicate all evil in the 616 universe. He would not be an evil tyrant as some believe. No, he will allow people to go on with their lives like normal. He would put an end to all crime on earth. The only downside is that everyone on the planet must obey his laws. Just look at the people of Latveria. Doom is never shown beating or killing his people.
- Problem with this theory is that when Doom did succeed in conquering Earth, he let himself get overthrown because he was bored. Doom could have saved the world ''years'' ago if it really mattered to him.
Doctor Doom doesn't want to rule the world
- He wants to conquer the world but we have seen before that when he wins he finds that Victory Is Boring. The actual conquest for him is far more fun that actually doing the work of running the world. And his conquest of the world is nit about improving it, he's doing it for himself. Doom could have saved the world ''years'' ago if it really mattered to him. But unless the world is in immediate danger, it doesn't matter. He cares about the world, but not enough to improve it unless it's on his terms, something Susan Storm has called him out for, because satisfying his ego is more important.
Dr. Doom's scar is actually minor, but the way he treats it isn't due to vanity and he actually has Body dysmorphic disorder
