I haven't been paying really any attention to the FF in about 5 years or so, long time I know, I was just wondering if someone could give me a quick run down on some things, like what's with the new black and white costumes( I really like them), what's with Mr Fantastic and Mrs Invisible's child Franklin Richards? and why's Spidey one of the FF.

After Johnny Storm died closing the portal to the Negative Zone, the Fantastic Four disbanded and started calling themselves the Future Foundation (well, they already had a team with that name with all the genius children living with them). Then the others changed their costumes accordingly (black and white).

Franklin has his reality warping powers again, they were reactivated by his future self time traveling to help them for the upcoming problems they were about to have (Negative Zone invasion, Universal Inhumans, the Kree invasion, and the Council evil Reed Richards' messing things up further).

Spidey is on the team basically because they asked him to be. He and Franklin get along great, as well as with the rest of the team (on a side note, he also sells books).
