Based on the premise for The Fantastic Four: First Steps, Galactus wants the baby (Franklin Richards) because he senses immense power within the child and believes he can use this power to free himself from his insatiable, cosmic hunger. TheWrap +1
The movie has slightly altered the original storyline from the comics. In this version, Galactus's insatiable hunger for power is viewed as a cosmic curse rather than a necessity. This hunger could be transferred to someone who possesses significant Power Cosmic, which, of course, includes Franklin.
Well, in the Marvel comics, Franklin Richards isn't just any baby. He grows up to become one of the most powerful beings in the universe. He can change reality, make his own universes, and even bring dead people back to life. He's so powerful that even Galactus has been afraid of him.
When he learns about Franklin and clocks the baby's immense powers as a fellow Power Cosmic, he thinks the child might have the ability to free him from his hunger.
Fantastic (aka Reed Richards), Invisible Woman (aka Sue Storm), Human Torch (aka Johnny Storm) and The Thing (aka Ben Grimm) fighting the most powerful enemy of the universe—Galactus, who is out to get Reed and Sue's baby, Franklin Richards, for he possesses far greater power than all Avengers and X-Men combined.
Just as she was about to use the weapon on herself, her planet-eating father, Galactus, appeared and shared his far vaster cosmic awareness with her and helped her realize she had misidentified the parasite and she was in fact pregnant and she had spontaneously generated in him in the same manner.
Now you may be asking why? Well that's because in the comic books the devour of world right there is scared of Franklin Richards. Bro Galactus says it to Franklin's daddy Reed Richards.
He is depicted as the son of Taaia and the father of Gali/Galacta. Since debuting in the Silver Age of Comic Books, Galactus has played a role in over five decades of Marvel continuity.
Cap doesn't have a biological child in the main 616 universe, though he has had adopted/sidekick kids before. Ultimate Red Skull being his son was pretty awesome. Not really great for your Nerd-bonafides, that you think a What-if story is canon.
Consumed by Hunger
Galactus' hunger grew greater than ever, driving him mad with desire to consume sentient life.
Filled with horror, Sue refused to give up her child, but Galactus used his powers to speed up her pregnancy, immediately forcing her into labor, much to the group's shock. As Sue writhed in pain, Reed defied Galactus and yelled that he would never take their planet or their son.
Galactus isn't your standard villain, he's a living cosmic force of nature. He's, really, really, hard to kill. One of the few times he's been killed, the MU participants had to wish him back to reality because it unleashed Abraxas.
