Frankie Raye's powers were revealed in Fantastic Four #238, and she became the herald of Galactus in Fantastic Four #244.The second Kree-Skrull War began when the Kree learned in Silver Surfer #5 that the Skrulls have lost their shapeshifting ability.And this really is a great story by Englehart, miles beyond the rest of his 1980s work.Ĭhronological Placement Considerations: Takes place soon after Fantastic Four #312. Majestic art (and colors) by Marshall Rogers depicting the doings of these massive cosmic entities. While the Surfer is rescuing Shalla Bal, the Elders trick Galactus into coming to them by mimicking Nova's signal while she is off searching for a planet for him to eat.
Silver surfer warped reality free#
Obviously the Surfer enjoyed the intensity of Mantis' interest in him, but it's funny how the Surfer only talks positively about humans now that he's free of their planet. Hopefully Shalla Bal is unconscious for that, but she soon wakes up, and the two discuss the intensity of human emotion, and how in comparison Zen-Laians are so cold. "I couldn't carry both! I reached for Mantis!", he says disappointed. Surfer manages to rescue only Shalla Bal. Really, Shalla Bal? Now, while you're held captive by the Elders of the Universe, and all of reality is at stake, you're going to get in some digs at the Surfer's new girlfriend?Īlso, why are the Elders standing on that floating cone? Where's Ego the Living Planet? I know we'll find out (about a year) later, but don't introduce him as an Elder and then just leave him out of their big end scheme!Īnyway, the Surfer agrees to give up the gem, but the Grandmaster isn't such a good sport, so he throws the Surfer's lady friends into the heart of a star. The Silver Surfer is contacted by the Elders, and he rushes to their location. Obviously all of this isn't in play yet i'm just wondering how it should work out based on my half-remembered knowledge of the Infinity Gems.įor now, the Elders all have Soul Gems, and they've also captured both Mantis and Shalla Bal.
I guess it could also be the Mind Gem, or maybe Supremor's great intelligence allowed him to expand its usage, or maybe the gem that was left on Warlock's grave wasn't really his own. But Supremor's Gem certainly seems to be functioning like the Soul Gem, too. But Warlock originally had the actual Soul Gem, and that's (i presume) the one that was left on his grave that the Gardener subsequently picked up. When Jim Starlin originally introduced the idea of multiple gems, they were all Soul Gems and that's how Englehart is using them here. Warped by Mephisto's dark magic, the Flying Dutchman's Ghost was now stronger and had better weaponry, after pursuing the Silver Surfer through the city, they eventually met and battled, the Silver Surfer prevailed due to the Flying Dutchman's Ghost betraying Mephisto, The Silver Surfer shed a tear for the tortured and trapped soul of the Flying Dutchman's Ghost, and in turn, he was released from the bondage of Limbo.Another thing i'll want to look at more closely when i get there is later on when the Infinity Gems are each defined as having unique attributes. The Flying Dutchman's Ghost was summoned by Mephisto and promised freedom from limbo if he destroyed the Silver Surfer. He was named the Flying Dutchman and sent to Limbo. When they met with Death, his crew's souls were allowed to rest but he was not. He forced his crew into a storm to find treasure and the ship was overtaken by the raging sea. He had no compassion for life, only wealth. Captain Joost Van Straaten was the captain of a ship that lusted only for treasure and was consumed with greed.
