Item Biography
"Visit to a Large Empire"
Reed must come up with an ingenious way to stop Galactus but it was well beyond the powers of the Fantastic Four and Earth. Sharon suggests that the Shi'ar may have a weapon strong enough for the job, so they set off for the Shi'ar Empire. Reed slows time so they can gather enough ammunition to destroy Galactus but their efforts are discovered when Gladiator jumps in on a routine inspection. Reed explains the situation to Gladiator who sees the danger and uses all of the Shi'ar ammo dumps for the effort. The armada sets off for Galactus, but on Earth, the Black Celestial is alerted to the danger as he awakens and heads to the same point in time, but his arrival is not to help the FF, but to destroy them.
