In "Epiphany!", Jim Starlin delivers a pivotal moment in the cosmic saga as Galactus confronts his own origins, revealing a shocking method to end his endless hunger.

Thanos, reaching through Moondragon’s powers, begins to grasp the terrifying scope of the plan. The story unfolds with Starlin’s signature depth, illustrated by his own bold artwork and brought to life by Al Milgrom’s inks and Christie Scheele’s colors, all framed by Starlin and Milgrom’s striking cover.
