Doom literally could NOT comprehend what the kid just said.
"Why is this urchin not working in the mines, harvesting rare metals to construct Doom Bots to use against Accursed Richards????"
Reminder: during Unthinkable, Dr Doom sent Franklin Richards to Literal Hell.
Yes he did.
I mean even in the above piece Doom looks like he's seriously considering punting Franklin like a football.
And I think the only reason he doesn't is because he realizes it may make him look bad, not any actual consequence, like he could probably kick the ass of whoever else is there. But he doesn't want it getting out he kicked an eight year old or however old Franklin is here. It is, as the kids say, a bad look.
I think Storm was there too? Doom’s usually a little more on edge around Storm. Which is smart. You’ll never find all her knives, and there’s a non-zero chance one of them is vibranium or magic or something.
Yeah I think the set up here is that Doom is being asked to help make Kitty solid again (this was at the time where Kitty was made permanently intangible due to injuries she sustained during Mutant Massacre and at this point it was literally starting to kill her) But it would mean having to work with the Accursed Richards or something so Doom is being all pissy.
So yeah Doom had better check himself, cause if Ororo's daughter dies because of Doom she is not gonna be happy.
