Warning: SPOILERS for Avengers #28
It's has been a truly exciting time in the life of the Silver Surfer, and it's not getting any less incredible. After revealing he secretly became the first life in Marvel's Universe, he faced the front lines of a new war in Annihilation - Scourge. Now he is on the hunt for Marvel's newest Starbrand... and this job he's not handling alone. Prepare yourselves for the united Heralds of Galactus.
The trio of Silver Surfer, Firelord, and Terrax have only assembled into one fighting force a handful of time throughout their history, having been chosen years, centuries, even millennia apart to serve Galactus. Each blessed with a fragment of their master's power cosmic, the official preview for Avengers #28 finds the three gathered by a larger cosmic force. United as the only possible beings capable of facing a new threat born in an entire galaxy-sized prison, apparently prepared to end that threat by any means necessary.
The story unfolds in the official preview pages for Avengers #28 which can be found below.
The preview is a welcome inspection of just what powers of the Surfer remain, now that he is no longer technically the 'Silver Surfer' at all. After giving up his shine as part of the Silver Surfer Black miniseries, it was unclear exactly how strong or stable he would be in future stories. But in these pages of the new Avengers, he looks to be as powerful as ever -- and the same goes for his partner Heralds of Galactus. It's nice to know he has Firelord at his side as he seeks to take on the newest version of Starbrand. And if Terrax decides to embrace his typical, power-hungry nature, then the new cosmic warrior blasting Starbrand symbols into whole planets may be the least of their worries.
