“Galactus is Born!”

In "Galactus is Born!", Thor returns to Asgard hailed as a hero after defeating the Eater of Worlds, but Odin’s curiosity turns to unease as he delves into the mysterious origins of Galactus. With the cosmic entity’s creation still shrouded in mystery, this pivotal issue finally uncovers how such a force came to be—set against the mythic backdrop of Asgard and the vastness of space. Written by Stan Lee and brought to life with dynamic art by Jack Kirby, with inks by Vince Colletta and lettering by Sam Rosen, the cover by Kirby and Colletta captures the epic scale of the revelation.
