Good catch with the cast page! I don't tend to pay much attention to that, though I probably should, since Hickman tends to slip important information into all the various title pages and diagrams and such.
I'm assuming since eight years have passed in the AU that Valeria is probably 11-12 and Franklin maybe 15-18, which I guess makes for a less visible age gap than when Val was still a toddler, but there's really no telling with comic book kids. Still, I am kinda hoping they stay this sort of age after Secret Wars is over, because 4-year-old Valeria was really starting to get a bit silly.
And yeah, there's a lot that's just implied rather than filled in. I'm not following any of the other tie-in books so I don't know how much detail they flesh out, but I assume most of the Doom and F4-related stuff is in the main miniseries.
