Franklin Richards - Aspie ?

Post Reply New Topic

I am wondering if Franklin Richards , Reed and Sue's son in the Fantastic Four comic book , is now intended to be Aspie/HFA/spectrum ?
It just seems...........And I mean the comic book as it is now , in these last two years...

You know, I was thinking the exact same thing. For example, little Frank is shown as being very wise beyond his years, showing an impressive amount of intuition.

As an infant, Franklin was artificially aged by the High Evolutionary, in order to demonstrate the frightening amount of power he would one day be capable of wielding. The remaining side effect is Franklin's "Tattletale" power, which as I understand it amounts to clairvoyance and precognition that only work when he's dreaming, and the ability to project an astral image while dreaming.

So yeah, you can pretty much expect him to demonstrate "maturity beyond his years"...
