Galactus the Devourer #5

Jan 2000 · Marvel · 2.50 USD; 3.75 CAD
“Herald”

In "Herald," the final chapter of Galactus the Devourer’s 2000 series, the Silver Surfer stands at the center of a cosmic storm, bound once more to Galactus as the Devourer approaches. With the Kree attempting to manipulate the Surfer into targeting the Shi'ar, he delivers the grim truth to Lilandra and Gladiator—Galactus is coming. When the planet-eater arrives, he finds not a helpless world, but a united front of the Surfer, Starjammers, Avengers, and Fantastic Four ready to stand against him. Written by Louise Simonson and brought to life by John Buscema’s dynamic pencils and Bill Sienkiewicz’s bold inks, this 2.50 USD (3.75 CAD) issue delivers a powerful, high-stakes showdown with the cosmic scale that defines Marvel’s grandest battles.
