HEY GUYS, just wanted to say, I plan to post Franklin in tomorrow night (Saturday; afternoon for Americans, actually) and wanted to give a heads up.

He's a bit of an Avengers & X-Men fanboy -- he knows way more about the X-Men than I do, since he's a mutant himself. He's probably heard of (or even met!) your character in 616, but he understands alternate universes and "future stuff" enough not to spoil them. Still, let me know if you'd rather he didn't say anything at all out loud.

As for his powers ... I'm downplaying them for now (he's a deus ex machina in canon). He can fly, and will do so outside, but apart from that he's just an average preteen. (Maybe he and Bar understand each other more than most people.) There are enough previous explanations/etc for Franklin's fluctuating power levels, so.

Cool! Maybe he'll wake up my Val. = ]

If you would like, I'm fine with Ben having left a letter explaining Bar for any F4 members who show up. But I am also fine with Ben forgetting to so something like this as well, he's Ben.

I HOPE SO. (Franklin is less enthusiastic in my head.)

Ooh, that works, actually. I mean, I like the initial "wait this was supposed to be my bedroom" stuff, but after that, yes, an outline of how Milliways works is good.

If you want to go with the letter, then he will mention Val and that she's not Val Richards as well, likely glossing over the events without going into details. Her being erased I am chalking up to being caught in the Ultimate Nullifier's field rather than Franklin's powers as Franklin playing with his Mom's womb just bothers me. Jeph Loeb, what are ya gonna do right?

Franklin can have his own memories of the event but that is how Ben and Val have decided things worked.

Steve can't quite deal with the notion of there being other Captain Americas, so don't mention that to him, please.
