"Nice ta'meetchya, Sarah." Ben says jovially to the girl, listening intently. Cosmic devourers of worlds? A 'Fantastic Four'? No wonder Parker got his manties in a twist...

The General continues to wait, his boorish, carefree demeanor hiding a calculating mind with years of experience at protecting ol'Reed's Utopia. It sounds ludicrious, but then again, so do half the thinks his old roommate used to get him into...but, he wants to see if these visitors really convey the picture they're giving.

"This gist is this - Galactus has, at one time or another, menaced most of our home Earths. Big dude, immensely powerful. Thing is, he carries with him a great deterrent. The way the Fantastic Four stopped him back home was they they stole this weapon off of Galactus's own ship - called the Ultimate Nullifier. Just the credible threat of its use was enough to make Big G back off."
