Synopsis for "Uncles"
Franklin Richards is alone in the roof of the Baxter Building mourning his uncle Johnny Storm. Spider-Man arrives and invites him for lunch. After they eat a hot dog (that Franklin paid 'cause Spidey was out of money), Franklin talks about the guilt he feels for not saving his uncle. Spider-Man tells him about how he also could've saved his uncle from dying, but didn't do it because he was still too young and had a lot of things to learn. He reminds Franklin that eventually the feelings of guilt and the nightmares will disappear and be replaced by the loving memories of Johnny. Then, Spider-Man takes Franklin back home while in the background, in the sky, Ben Parker and Johnny Storm smile as their nephews head to Baxter Building.
Solicit Synopsis
