Toyfare: The Toy Magazine #51

In a playful twist of cosmic storytelling, Franklin Richards asks Thing to tell him a bedtime story about Wolverine—only this version reimagines the mutant as the last survivor of Planet Mongo, raised by Earth farmers, bonded with adamantium in Mexico, and a member of the Arriba Flight before joining Professor Malcolm X's X-Men. Written by Pat McCallum, Tom Root, Doug Goldstein, and Bill Jenson, this imaginative tale blends sci-fi adventure with a quiet moment of reflection, as Thing gently reminds Franklin that even heroes have their endings.
