As a movie enthusiast, I’m thrilled to welcome you to the Future Foundation! Just as Reed Richards, the brilliant mind behind the Fantastic Four, once declared, “Together, there’s no limit to what we can achieve.” The Fantastic Four, Marvel’s pioneering superhero squad, have always been about adventure, exploration, and pushing the boundaries of imagination.
In 2010, Reed introduced us to a concept ahead of its time – the Future Foundation – his solution to tomorrow’s problems, tackled today. With Marvel Studios’ upcoming series, The Fantastic Four: First Steps, delving back into the era that spawned this iconic team in a 1960s-inspired teaser, ahead of the trailer release on Tuesday, I thought it was fitting to share some insights about what the Future Foundation truly represents.
In the Marvel Universe, a foundation called the Baxter Building Foundation is established by Reed Richards (Pedro Pascal), after he was exposed to cosmic radiation during a space voyage with Sue Storm (Vanessa Kirby), Johnny Storm (Joseph Quinn), and Ben Grimm (Ebon Moss-Bachrach). As a team, they become the Fantastic Four, with Reed being Mr. Fantastic, Sue as the Invisible Woman, Johnny as the Human Torch, and Ben known as the Thing.
I imagined a gathering spot for exceptional thinkers of our time, where we could delve deeply into the challenges we face now, as well as envision where humanity is going next. Essentially, it’s about posing the tough questions and finding answers to guide us towards our future direction.
Following his departure from The Singularity, a collective of wise, yet apprehensive minds about the future, Reed founded the Future Foundation. This was an intellectual group made up of the most promising young intellectuals in the cosmos. By entrusting the future to those who will experience it, Reed and the Future Foundation aimed to broaden human influence throughout the universe – and eventually, the multiverse.
Instead of billions of humans battling for scarce resources on a planet nearing its end, the destiny of humanity lies in a thriving population of a trillion individuals across an entire galaxy. Our future doesn’t lie here… it resides elsewhere.
The initial group at Future Foundation comprised Franklin Richards, his brilliant sister Valeria (offspring of Reed and Susan Richards), as well as Alex Power from the powerful team Power Pack; Artie Maddicks, a mutant capable of projecting holographic thoughts; Tong, Turg, Korr, and Mik, advanced Moloids hailing from beneath the earth; the aquatic Uhari siblings Vil and Wu; and Dragon Man, an android who was once an adversary of the Fantastic Four but has since become self-aware.
Following Johnny Storm’s (apparent) demise in Fantastic Four #587 (2011), the team rebranded as the FF. In 2011’s FF #1, the superhero scientist Spider-Man joined the white-suited team. During this time, Reed Richards reconnected with his time-traveling father, Nathaniel Richards, who had returned from the future with valuable knowledge. Additionally, Valeria invited her godfather, Victor von Doom, the Four’s longtime adversary known as Doctor Doom, to join the revamped FF.
“Our curriculum will start at survival and end at the edge of eternal tomorrow.”
In upcoming lineups of our team, we’ll eventually have Bentley-23, a young replica of the brilliant but eccentric scientist called The Wizard; Onome, an engineering prodigy from Wakanda; Julie Powers, Alex’s sister who goes by Lightspeed; and Leech, Franklin’s friend who has the ability to dampen powers.
Or,
For future team compositions, we will eventually include Bentley-23 (a teenage clone of The Wizard), Onome (a Wakandan engineering genius), Julie Powers (Alex’s sister and Lightspeed), as well as Leech (Franklin’s friend with power-dampening abilities).
In 2019’s spinoff series titled “Future Foundation”, a group of the most brilliant young minds from various universes were united to form a team of cosmic problem-solvers, traveling through space to confront The Maker – an incarnation of Reed Richards from the Ultimate Universe who posed a significant threat across multiple realities.
Regardless of personnel shifts, Firefighters (FF) continue to uphold their goal: to bring about a brighter tomorrow.
Or simply:
Firefighters adapt with each roster change, but their ultimate aim stays the same – shaping a more promising future.
