"Franklin is under his blankets, creating a universe in the palm of his hand" ...Is that what they call it now?
LOL
You saw that mess in the palm of his hands. Do you need more proof?
TheHungryDark
TheHungryDark lololol
One time when I was around 13 or so...
I created like 9 universe's in one night! :P
Franklin Richards is basically the editor in chief at Marvel comics. If he decides to change things or write things in then he tells the artist and writers to do it. The one above all is the CEO of Disney.
I see what you did there.
+Tom C It's a fitting origin then being what Fantastic Four did for the Marvel Company in the sixties and during the reboot. DC has a similar entity. I always wonder when marvel goes full batshit and has a fourth wall broken character, non-616 stories, and what ifs is it really Franklin's perspective of infinite diversity in infinite combinations and our position amongst those options that we're seeing, meaning that there ARE no 4th wall breaks in Marvel because they made a McGuffin character?
The one above all used to be Stan Lee :P
GT5Player
Stan Lee is the Living Tribunal since he's appears in all multiverses of the Marvel Universe. He's seen in Sony Spider-Man movies, Fox Deadpool movie, and Marvel's official movies.
Tom C hybrid
i like how Franklin Richards just becomes Triple H when he grows up
😂😂😂😂
LMAO
This is gold!!
😂
😂😂😂😂😂
So Franklin Richards is just a giant deus ex machina.
+DavidPlays Pretty much.
+Eli Acevedo Plus all the writers since the beginning of the Marvel series .
+DavidPlays You took the words directly from my mouth, and I'd like to add, though it may not be much of an addition, that one could argue he is a "Deus Ex Machina Incarnate" so he would be more aptly named "Deusenberg Richards" because personifying a literary device, is a real doozy, which is in fact another play on words, as it was akin to "the real McCoy, therein the adjective was taken from proper nouns, such as the Dusenberg, or a member of the McCoy family (though the origin of this has three different speculations) I do so love the English language when it is spoken proper clever, properly.
+DavidPlays, It's more than that. Franklin Richards is not a "deus ex machina," he is THE "deus ex machina." It's a subtle difference, but one worth making. The difference is that a deus ex machina would be an event or person that the writer puts in the story to make it go the way they want. Franklin Richards is the writer, Franklin Richards is us, essentially. He ret-cons characters and stories that as a child we were dissatisfied with. We used to be the reader who followed the stories and characters at the whims of those who may or may not have done what we felt was just and right. Now we are the writers, but we refuse to leave the worlds of our youth. We are the child living in one world, but holding a blue ball of a universe we created. We cannot hold both, we must make a choice. Franklin Richards is us.
+Shawn Linnell - no... just no...These silly Franklin theories are ridiculous. He's powerful, sure, but there have been several mutants on earth far more powerful than him.
...he made Galactus a herald. My God lol
That's what my brother and I said! We had to stop and look at each other like...WT....?!?!?
And she said superman is the most OP superheroes (dc fanboys)
More like made Galactus his little bitch!
@@danielkokali5783 What about cosmic armour superman?
Imagine if galactus was swap into tlt
If you try to age Peter Parker, Franklin will send you to the corn field. It's a good thing your doing Franklin, a real good thing.
Ha ha - Twilight zone reference....
Cffff
Lol
This comment aged horribly
FRANKLIN RICHARDS JUST BECAME MY NEW FAV CHARACTER...ANYONE WHO CAN MAKE GALACTUS HIS BITCH IS COOL WITH ME...
I was in shock when he said herald of galactus i was like what that is badass
I know right!!!!
You how much a bad-ass he would have to be to make galactus your herald; it makes you wonder if he fought thanos who would win ?
Heck yeah!!!
jacob harris Well Franklin. Thanos is nothing without the Infinity Gauntlet. Even with it, i would put money on Franklin.
16:40: council of Ricks.
Erik Freeman it just dawned on me!
That was my first thought haha
TO ME...*MY GALACTUS!*
I wonder if Franklin Richards is also behind the lack of aging we see in the Simpsons.
I normally don't comment but I truly enjoyed this video. I'm don't really read comics since I have no idea where to even start but I've watched almost every single one of your videos.
Paul Cheon dito
i don't want to be this guy, but im gonna, if you have watched almost every video, it literally says in the descriptions, if you wanna read Xmen start here, if you want to read batman start here, do a little research and your inner nerd will sprout forward! that being said, i think the greatest story arch of all time is either House of M, or the Crisis series in DC
11:11 "she's no longer the man that he knows"... i giggled
I'm not sure I 100% agree about Franklin representing Marvels unwillingness for break the status quo... I actually think that Marvel is desperate to break it. I think they badly want change, but I think negative fan reaction always forces them to revert. I think Franklin has often just been their revert button. An idea is tried, it doesn't sell copies, it gets reset back to what did sell.
Maybe Franklin doesn't represent Marvel, maybe he represents the knee jerk reader that's afraid of change? If that makes sense?
Falconhoof True
That actually makes a lot of sense
But can he beat the 96-97 Bulls?
😵😄
no
i don't get it
allemoney lmao
Some random guy from the beyond you must don't watch sports or never watched it
Franklin Richards has the power to RETCON. You can't mess with some shit on that level. Also, TO ME, MY GALACTUS was one of the most badass things I've ever experienced.
Out of all the great characters in Marvel, Franklin has to be one of my favorites. He represents the struggle writers go through to meet impossible standards only to receive backlash from an audience of greedy neckbeards. If I was Franklin I would spend an eternity trolling those ungrateful nerds
That's Fullbeard to you!
I think we can see Franklin Richards as Eternity, by the simple fact that he makes things continue forever, by not changing the status quo.
Hey Rob, I wanted to let you know how much we enjoy these videos. I wasn't able to read comics as a kid and these really help to fill the gap and are extremely well done.
franklin richard reminds me of a twilight zone episode where ron howard can wish anything,anytime,anywhere he wishes
Rob wasnt kidding when he said he has improved a lot. This video makes you want to sleep the most recent one telling the same story bought me back to comics
so basically what you are saying is that FR is a human reset button?
rodlurks66 lmao or the editor at marvel... writing random shit
He's pretty much a universal reset button on a infinite universe scale.
The council of Ricks would kick the council of Reeds' ass.
+Arrownoir I don't know. The Council of Reeds is more evil...not sure who's smarter.
+Arrownoir This made me wonder, is the council of Ricks a direct reference to the council of Reeds?
+Trevor Thoreson Probably.
+Trevor Thoreson Absolutely it is.
+Trevor Thoreson most certainly. i mean, not only it's a direct parallel, but remember the machine of unspeakable doom? it is basically the same punishment the counsel of Reeds gives to various dr Dooms. minus the ball stabbing. considering all this a coincidence is simply rickdiculous.
I've been watching all your videos ... Proud to be a subscriber keep up the good work. No one can compare to your work let alone the clarity of your summaries.. keep it real my G.
Hey just wanted to stop by to say that I really love your channel! I'm not exactly a huge fan of comics, but I find your videos really interesting
Thank you for such a great video! That was a great job of explaining Franklin Richards and the Marvel Universe. You dropped alot of knowledge I didnt know and I thank you again. Keep producing great videos like this one! I had one question, I love your intro song to your videos , who is the artist and title of the song?? Keep up the great work ! Looking forward to more and more videos!
I like to think Franklin Richards is The One Above All in human form. This will help explain why events are always drawn to earth and it’s heroes. Also this gives TOAA the chance to understand his creation and be a part of it at same time.
Yes. I think so too. In The Immortal Hulk #23, The One Below All calls him "the anointed prince". I would like to think that the TOBA is the opposite of the TOAA so that has to mean something.
Well done Rob, love it. Keep it up. I listen to all your comics and I am up to date. Thanks man, keep it up. From Louisville Kentucky
Man, i just caught up with FR in all the years i haven't read FF comics in one video here. This was some awesome narration at its best with info provided. Awesome Work!
Well said, thank you for this video. Well done and we'll narrated. Learned a lot, puts things into perspective.
DrillOllie Thanks!
wow, i really had no idea how ridiculously powerful Franklin was. He is like a God of the Marvel Multi-verse. please keep making more videos, i myself cannot get enough. as much as i already know about Marvel comics, the sad realization is that there is not enough time in my life span to know and read it all. you sir, make my day. also please consider doing Rick Remenders run on Uncanny X- force. it really sets the stage for a lot of things going on in Marvel these days. thank you for your efforts.
I can't stop watching your videos!! Brilliant stuff :)
Thanks for the update! I have been waiting for soo long about the Rubicon-cube story to finally come out. Thank you again! Desmond
Great indept look at a character I have allways wanted a closer look at. Thank you for taking your time to make this. Your videos have sertainly revitelised my old passion for the comics and to have alot of my favorite superheroes explained is a good way to catch up on many years of not reading as much as I want to. Keep up your great work. Btw would you mind telling me the name of the drum & bass tune at the end of your vid?
For the most part, I like this video. Well done!
Just recently found ya videos, love the professionalism ya bring bud, keep up the good work!
That was a super thought-provoking analysis. Thank you.
great vid!
There's a lot of stuff that happened between the first emergeance of his powers and what happened in Heroes Reborn that you have not covered. Like Franklin Richards joining a young group of heroes called "Power Pack" and his powers beginning to be much more defined. He was called "Tall Tales" and his powers were dream-based or wish-based and they would occur only when he was asleep. He also defeated the demon Mephisto.
Thank you Rob for uploading videos so often! Respect. Live long and prosper :)
Yay an explained episode. Thanks Rob!
please do an explanation of Black Panther! :)
I agree. Black Panther deserves his own vid. Plus I'd always like to know more about him. He's awesome, lol.
Franklin is the OG.
he aint no OG but he is way op
This is probably the single greatest explanation of anything that I have ever heard or read. It makes so much sense that I'm going to believe it as fact.
Wow. This video was huge. Nice job Rob!
Franklin Richards as the status quo SHOULD then be an enemy to the heroes of the Marvel Universe. They should be trying to stop him, as he has them trapped just as much as someone like The Collector might.
The more I watch your videos the more I realize how annoyingly convoluted the marvel and especially xmen universe is. I give you credit for being able to chronologically follow all this crap.
+D-Span couldnt agree more that is exactly why i dont read comics its just a never ending cycle of short stories and ridiculous explanations as to why...anything in life without an ending basically has no purpose...comics as enjoyable as they are and i love the movies and stories, but at the end of the day comics have no purpose.
+Mr Pink Most superhero comics are just a giant cicle of nothingness. I was a huge fan of lots of Marvel and Dc characters, but in the years, I just got bored by their invicibility and immortality. They're not humans anymore(I mean, c'mon, Cap America has died at least 3/4 times!), and much less empathic in my opinion. If you want some really good comics, try DC Vertigo, image, Dark Horse and everything that produces stories with an ending(even Hellboy will eventually end ffs!). Also the french comics, theiy're damn good too.
Dylan Dog, Zagor and Tex are the best comics in my opinion :)
Bane Well, DD Zagor and Tex have the same problems as superheroes, they can't really die or end, and so they will never really change. I really suggest french and creator owned titles, they're usually much more capable of ending their damn stories xD
I know, but they are still fun to read. I have stoped reading superhero comics because writers run out of ideas they make them boring by giving them some powers that make too OP. I seen the new supermans power, i think it's called solar flare, and i think it's dumb. Also the new costume they gave him is a complete garbage. His costume looks like a kid pajama.
Reed: Wonda, I have Children of my own I understand.
Wonda: Is their mother still alive?
Seeds were planted for this kid to give our Wonda a run for her money.
Franklin Richards is gonna slide for his father 💀🔥
Franklin Richards is that little boy from The Twilight Zone. Your a bad man >blink< your in the cornfield. That's a good thing you did Franklin. A real good thing.😆
why Jonathan Hickman doesn't write a volume issue about Franklin Richards
Is it possible that Franklin Richards be the son of TOAA through Reed R. and Sue Storm?
";-)
No.. why would he be?
First off, I wanna start by saying props for the for reals thing. Awesome that you responded that way. Big fan here. Love the work you put into these videos. Can't wait for your Silver Surfer video. I just have a few questions/suggestions.
1. Who is your favorite hero/villain?
2. Any chance on a DC explained series?
3. Any chance you could cover the X-men? (specifically, what lead up to schism? The whole two school thing, Cyclops taking over genosha...I kinda dropped off marvel for a bit, so the X-men timeline is a bit confusing)
and bonus vs question. Who wins, Franklin Richards or Dr. Manhattan? I think I know, but what does the judge say?
Also Franklin Richards recent appearance in Avengers 32 was flippin amazing ROB
can u make one about his sister? :D
You should do one of these for Onslaught.
Wow, this was amazing! Keep em coming!
Awesome freaking vid! Super educational
Great video Rob!!! One request though, since you have started to cover these emensley powerful humans do you think you can do a video on Molecule Man. I know he's obscure but I keep hearing people talk about how The Living Tribunal said he could not beat hum. Id love to hear a video on this guy.
*immensley. sorry but reading that was killing me. But i concur on the Molecule Man. Wanna see that video
The Dragon Reborn immensely*
Living Tribunal at his peak should be able to put down pre retcon molecule man
Yeah Franklin Richards is my new favorite!
And THAT INTRO BEAT IS 😈!!!! WHOA!!!
This explains alot. Gr8 vid. I am a fan!
Could you do a video on Howard The Duck at some point?
Simpsonsman120 lol Howard The Duck? I never thought about that.
MarvelExplained - Videos on Marvel Comics and Films He's actually a pretty interesting and intriguing character.
MarvelExplained - Videos on Marvel Comics and Films will you do a video about agent venom ?
+Simpsonsman120 He's a duck, man.
+ComicsExplained no bro nobody wants that
25:00 It sounds like FR is cop out for the writers at Marvel. They can kill off the whole Marvel Universe for shock value and just use him as a reset button. He's worse than using time travel to wrap a story up.
Deadpool kills the marvel universe would like to know your location
I know alot about comic, but you took it to another level. Thanks
You're such an amazing resource thank you!
Interesting thing is we have yet to see Franklin make an appearance in the cinematic universe or the animated one. I doubt with the current status quo we will.
Supremmo Fox owns the rights to fantastic four for movies, thus not being in the cinematic universe until marvel makes a deal with them taking X-men and The Fantastic Four
Smasherfan88 I know that. I'm just noting that we will never see Franklin Richards in the MCU.
The only way I see a powerful character like Franklin, being in MCU, is a cameo. Franklin could just erase any threat and *POOF* roll credits.
Wel now that Franklin was referenced by reed Richards in dr strange 2! So that makes his existence known in the MCU timeline! Making him the most powerful character of the MCU
I still wanna know where this guy is all the time. Where was he during Infinity Saga?
Thurston NeSmith they’ll probably have to introduce the fantastic four first and then reed richards and then finally Franklin Richards. They probably won’t be in the MCU for awhile.
Very insightful video. please bring us more.
Damn the first video I ever watched from Rob. Learned everything I know about comics from this amazing man.
Franklin represents the time in comics before the cataclysmic events that permanently change the universe!
please do a video about what happened after civil war
There was a great reconstruction... blah blah :)
gregory clausen ok i appreciate that information
gregory clausen
Don't forget the South was under martial law for a time.
Such a great vid. Well done and thx.
Articulate, Informative and we get to see the books. Love it.
Imagine being the parents who created such a being. As a man I would be bragging to anyone. I'd be like "Hey did you see Franklin there? that came from me."
why are there always evil giant powerful bad guys that hang out in space like thanos that want to do bad.
why can't there be random god-like space unicorns that want to do good?
They don't necessarily think what they are doing is wrong, those highly powerful beings wants to keep order across all Multiverses, they see a threat they act against it. But that depends on how they see it.
Faris Qasem so thanos sees earth as a threat?
+Trevor foulks I am not sure of how thanos thinks of earth I am not an expert about him tbh, but if you ask me... I see the human race as the biggest threat there is.
+Trevor foulks dude the silver surfer later on before he goes crazy
Shonenjump Around yhea, but he kinda didn't really do much for a long time
and godly space unicorns would still be epic :D
You just earned a New subscriber. Great job breaking it down
very interesting....thanks for posting.
I see you've incorporated the original sin event in your intro does that mean sometime in time future you'll do a video about it?
Yup!
MarvelExplained Just wondering, I read some comics with Franklin joining Power Pack as an honorary member. Is that no-canon to the "6-1-6" (I don't know how they spell it out I just learned about it today) universe or not? Just curious.
whats the song at the end?
Devotion by Grafix
Man that was absolutely fantastic (no pun intended) great job.
Hey Rob, I love all of you videos! Could you do a video about The Vision?
Soo... are you ever gonna do something about Squirrel Girl? She's got her own title again, and is said to be on the level of the living tribunal. And is apparently has been ret-conned to be not a mutant.
is that a snake you holding?
+DiRd07 yes, her name is Temperence and she was a tiny baby in that picture. She is much bigger now.
Rosalie Kitchen wow... I'm a little bit scared of snakes they're so soft and moving.
+DiRd07 I would say interaction with a species like the Ball Python is a good way to help with that fear. They are super docile and sweet.
Rosalie Kitchen ☺😊 I don't know. Maybe I try to pet a Python someday.
For all the great interactions we get between characters in the world of comics, I'd say the medium's single greatest shortcoming is the inability to raise suspense.
No matter how high the stakes are, none of it really matters because there are countless plot devices in which any threat, no matter how large, can be eliminated. Characters like Abraxas threatened the entire multiverse. There is no possible way you can raise the stakes any higher than that. But with virtually omnipotent heroes like Franklin Richards out and about, it doesn't really matter in the end. When you have heroes that can manipulate reality, the possibility of a credible threat is extinguished. If the writers need him to, Franklin Richards can override any sort of apocalypse imaginable. Even if we didn't have absurdly powerful heroes, a multiversal calamity is just not a good device for character development. Despite everything that the heroes had to overcome in the Abraxas saga, I just wasn't impressed by the stakes at all. A character doesn't need a deep motive to save the world when their own survival is at stake.
However, in Thor: God of Thunder's "The Last Days of Midgard" story arc, I found myself completely engrossed in the narrative, despite the fact that Thor was fighting for something that he already lost. In other words, nothing was really at stake. Humanity was already gone by that point and the earth was just a dead husk. Thor's guilt was what made that story interesting, and because I was invested in that conflict, I rooted for him to succeed against opposition. That's what created the suspense. Almost anyone would do everything in their power to prevent the end of the multiverse for the sake of their own lives. But how many people would put everything on the line to just save something they already failed to protect? That's a lot more interesting to me.
***** read the infinity gauntlet and thanos conquest
Alejandro Castellanos is Franklin not omniversal? meaning, he'd exist on battleworld in the last surviving reality. Franklin lives.
Derek Anderson Franklin died during the last incursion. God Doom brought them back.
Maybe they should try a different approach. Instead of just saying "here's a massive threat, everyone will do everything in their power to stop it", maybe they could focus on what people will actually do against such threats and why.
Okay, readers don't really see the death of the multiverse as a big deal because it's beyond their comprehension and they don't really have a reference point. Well, neither do the people who are trying to prevent it. What does that mean, and how do they deal with it?
Sure, people will do everything they can to stop the death of the multiverse in theory, but would that actually play out in practice? Would some people give in to despair because there's nothing they can do? Would some pass it off as someone else's responsibility? Are there moral lines that some characters simply will not cross, no matter the stakes, and is that the right call?
What about the stress that comes from having the weight of the entire multiverse on your shoulders? What effect will that have on mental health, relationships, core beliefs and worldviews, etc.?
There's lots of possibility there, the writers just don't know how to use it. That or they don't care, or someone higher-up won't let them.
I never thought about Franklin Richards this way. Wow, that really changes things and makes a whole lot of sense. Thanks for the vid!
This was an AMAZING explanation of what exactly Franklin is. Great video!!!!!!!!
Wow. Deep. Bookmarked.
Is mad Jim Jasper on the same level as franklin? I know mad Jim is also a very strong reality warper as well.... He's just never talked about as much, I would like to know more about him.
No, Mad Jim Jaspers requires a reality for his powers to work and Franklin Richards doesn't. Think of it like cooking: Mad Jim Jaspers requires the ingredients to exist for him to make a meal. Franklin can create the ingredients. Does that make any sense?
MarvelExplained Ah, understood! Love your channel
MarvelExplained Ah, understood! Love your channel
shinzantetsu Mad Jim Jaspers is far more powerful than Franklin Richards. A weaker MJJ, was able to warp his entire universe and essentially replace Eternity himself. 616 MJJ was even more powerful than that, and was stated to be an Omniversal threat. MJJ is probably 2nd most powerful mutant ever. Franklin Richards is like 5th, or 6th most powerful mutant ever. He's about high Celestial level. He's never done anything above Universal, and adult Franklin Richards couldn't even defeat some No Name Celestials, and required young Franklin's powers to help him, and Galactus to beat the Celestials. Whereas a weaker MJJ replaced Eternity.
rtc7788 ah i see,thanks for the info.
Wow simply wow, great video!
Great & well informative video!
Interesting idea on Franklin Richards as a representation of the Marvel Status quo. However I think there is a flip side character to this, an opposite to this idea and an individual pretty much equal to Franklin in power: David Haller aka Legion. A companion discussion on him and the themes he represents, I think would compliment this one very well.
Zach Nixon
Sadly not (noting your avatar for humour, naturally). Legion, like Franklin, can do anything, including travel through time and dimensions. He also has highest level psychic powers that equal and/or surpass his father (a skillset Franklin doesn't have). The main thing about Legion that gives him the edge in his skillset is that he is mentally ill. Which just by looking at characters like Joker by default gives you an extra level beyond regular people.
Zach Nixon
The thing about his mental illness is that it gives him extra powers. Each time his illness presents itself, it generates a new personality and with that a new power. This new power in turn stacks on top of his existing ones.
Legion has never gone up against the Cosmic heavy hitters such as LT, he is traditionally kept on Earth, so it's hard to tell how he would fare.
The One Above All does bug me though, as we've never seen it and aside from LT's monlogues have no idea what it can actually do or it's powerset and limits.
Meh, the only other mutant on par to Franklin is Jim Jaspers
Also, sure Legion may be an Omega Level mutant, Franklin is "Above" Omega level mutant!!
johnnyscifi
Legion isn't merely an Omega though. He has multiple personalities that are Omega and when he combines all of his personalities together he is WAY beyond that. Due to his mental illness however, his full limits have never been documented or reached.
What was the outro song? It isn't in the description. It just wanted to know. P.S. nice video.
anyone?
anyone??
+Siddiq Smouse The Heavy - Short Change Hero !
+Akash S. That's the intro song, they are looking for the outro song. It's Grafix - Devotion.
+Nicholas D Wolfwood thank you!
Great job, and thanks!
Appreciate the comic explanation and big picture explanation! I know that you ain't talk for the rest of the day after doing this video tho, LOL!
So basically Franklin Richards is god in the marvel universe?
Yes he is and that why I love him
no, he is the most powerful human in the marvel universe
no ... the one above all.. is
He's easily the most powerful character on Earth in Marvel, but he's not the Marvel God. That spot belongs to The One Above All.
Yes and No.. maybe he is one of the most powerful mutants in the Marvel Universe but there is Vulcan and Matthew Malloy..
so any conitiuty errors in Marvel Comics they just blame on Franklin Richards changing reality lol talk about lazy writing
or smart
Bro. I know this is a 6Y.O vid. But please make these into a podcast series or something ... wouldn’t even have to change the length or format ... I could and DO listen for hours I NEED this at work! Love the channel appreciate the work
Well played. Very well explained. Franklin Richards is basically Stan Lee's youthful excitement forever more.
Franklin Richards can defeat martian manhunter
Franklin could look at him and make him non existent LOL
sujay venkatesh would slaughter anyone in fiction.......(yes, im looking at you goku fantards)
That's not really a fair comparison though. FR vs Superboy prime would be more fair
minecraft . exe i was gonna say the same lol
Anime Alex No, he there are still more powerful beings, even within the Marvel multiverse. Such as The One Above All.
Good video and nicely informative, but feels very audibly repetitive to always refer to the characters by their full names. Once I noticed early in the video that every time you mention Reed by name, it’s always “Reed Richards did this, then Reed Richards did that, then Reed Richards went and did this other thing,” I couldn’t stop noticing it and how little variation there is. Never just “REED did this thing,” or spice it up by using his codename; “Mr. Fantastic did blahblahblah.” The same seems to be said for the Thing and Torch and Franklin. Each and every time their names came up, it seemed to always be the full “Ben Grimm,” “Johnny Storm” and “Franklin Richards.”
“Franklin Richards remade the universe, and by doing that Franklin Richards demonstrates that Franklin Richards’ full name is Franklin Richards...”
To anyone looking for the intro song, it's called "Short Change Hero" by The Heavy, and the part he plays starts at about 1:23 in the song
First? And really enjoy the vids Rob. keep up the good work. Also ever think of putting your guys podcasts on soundcloud? I would listen to them on my phone if I could access them there, keeping the UA-cam app open is a bit annoying
franklin adult is like jesus... i know it!
yup a comicbook character
