History
The Future Foundation was an organization that was established by Reed Richards in order to cultivate the mind of highly-intelligent youths who he deemed were the future of the world. (Fantastic Four v1 #579)
After the return of Nathaniel Richards, he along with his son Mr. Fantastic Four worked together alongside the Future Foundation to prepare for an upcoming event. (FF v1 #1)
In the aftermath, the Foundation decided not to return to Earth alongside the Fantastic Four. Instead, they sought to search the universe for a stray molecule of Owen Reece so that he could be restored back to life. Thus, they parted ways with their comrades with Alex Power being awarded the position of Professor and the Dragon Man vowed to protect the children under his care. They then departed as they searched for a way to bring back the Molecule Man whilst keeping an eye out for the return of the Griever as the promised to return to Earth once their mission was complete. (Fantastic Four v6 #4)
On Earth, Mister Fantastic intended to use the newly created Forever Gate as a means of bringing the Future Foundation back to Earth-616. The gateway was a doorway into the wider Multiverse where a signal was used to allow the kids of the Foundation to return to their world. This allowed some of the children to be re-united with their parents where the group was disbanded at this point. Only Dragon Man and Bentley-23 remained with the Fantastic Four as they had no family to be with where they were set to maintain the Forever Gate. (Fantastic Four v6 #26)
