This is one of my favorite books. Why? Because there's no status quo. Just like life. This books shakes things up, and never comes at you from the same direction. Tony Bedard is doing a fantastic job writing this book, and now we have Paul Pelletier back on pencils. This issue we get to see a different Galactus and Silver Surfer. Galactus, in this universe, is a benevolent deity. They call his the Restorer of Worlds. The Silver Surfer is the one with the god complex in this universe. They've been called to earth, a destroyed earth, to help save Galactus. He's being seriously trounced on by the Silver Surfer. When they arrive, the Imperial Guard on the Shi'ar Empire is trying to battle the Surfer. But he mows them down like cattle. He even eviscerates the Gladiator with his board. And without a drop of remorse. Galactus taps into Blinks power and sends the Surfer in one direction, and is board in the opposite. Blink immediately succumbs to this breach of her power, and then Galactus also passes out. Manta of the Imperial Guard then shows up with a starship to tow Galactus to the Imperial Center. But, as they race off, Surfer has finally gotten his board back, and is heading in their direction with a vengeance. Like I said, great book. Lots of action and fantastic characters. Never thought I'd be reading this one 90 issues later though. Thank You!!
