I FANTASTICI 4

FANTASTIC FOUR

prima serie Editoriale Corno

ALBO ORIGINALE DEL 1973

nell’ episodio principale dei F4 ritroviamo tanto per cambiare l’ orgoglioso e perennemente scontento surfista con l’ argento vivo addosso, che sebbene worldless è pur sempre alquanto referenziato e qualificato, e così non accetta il reintegro al suo vecchio impiego (da cui qualche anno luce prima era stato drasticamente licenziato) ma con declassamento alle modeste mansioni di semplice servo e cameriere che deve umilmente servire in tavola mondi interi da scofanare al suo famelico ed ingordo datore di lavoro Galactus, il gourmet e taste hunter cosmico perennemente in cerca di nuovi sapori astrali e di corpi celesti da mangiarsi in un boccone,e che però ha fatto giurin giurello di non sbafarsi il pianeta terra, anche se solo a pensarci gli viene uno tsunami di acquolina in bocca

contiene inoltre : PRINCIPE NAMOR SUB-MARINER

Synopsis

Ben Grimm pays a call to his girlfriend Alicia Masters and is shocked
to see that the Silver Surfer has already paid her a visit. 

He quickly
learns that the Surfer is depressed because Galactus has summoned him.
When Ben acts dismissive of this the Surfer loses his temper and attacks
the Thing, having grown tired of Ben’s jealousy over the larger issue.
He commands Ben to look in his eyes and he sees an image of the Punisher
coming to Earth. 

They quickly arrive at the Baxter Building where
Johnny is helping a clean-up crew with repairs to their headquarters
following their battle with Daredevil, Thor and Spider-Man. When they
tell Johnny what is going on, the youth is not very sympathetic, opining
that maybe the alien should go back to his master so that he can end
his exile on Earth. The Silver Surfer states that he could never be a
herald again, as he doesn’t want to help Galactus destroy any more
planets. The argument does not go much further as the Punisher arrives
outside the building. While he is not as powerful as he has been in the
past, the Surfer exerts all his strength and fires an atom-compacting
thrust to try and stop the invader. The work crew makes a run for it as
Johnny and Ben prepare for battle.

Ben ventures out to the rubble to see if the Punisher was
destroyed and is attacked. The two begin battling it out as Johnny
enters the fray as well. Elsewhere Reed and Crystal begin trying to
convince Sue that she needs to get out of the city until the baby is
born because it’s the only way she will remain safe. 

Suddenly they hear
the battle raging outside with the Punisher and Reed rushes off to help.
He arrives just in time so save Johnny after he knocks the Punisher
into the river and the resulting splashdown douses his flame. As Reed
begins to battle the Punisher, Galactus draws ever closer to Earth, his
hunger growing he is fully prepared to rescind his oath to spare the
Earth if his former herald refuses to return to the stars as his herald
once more.

Back on Earth, Ben pulls himself out of the rubble and takes a
cab out to the waterfront to rejoin the battle with his friends. When
the three male members of the Fantastic Four begin to pile on the
Punisher, the robot is overpowered and is suddenly teleported away,
leaving them to ponder their next challenge — Galactus himself. Just
then the ship carrying Galactus appears over the Earth and a search beam
is trained on the planet to search for his exiled herald. In the
aftermath of the battle, the FF realize that the Surfer had disappeared
when the fighting started. Johnny suddenly remembers what the Surfer had
said before he vanished, that there were “worlds within worlds.”

Notes

• The Silver Surfer has been exiled on Earth since betraying Galactus (in Italy in F4C #46).
• The Silver Surfer mentions that his power is but a fraction of
  what it once had been. This was due to the Sonic Shark missile that the
  U.S. military fired at him. It was able to drain some of his energy,
  before being destroyed by the Thing (in Italy in F4C #70).
• Sue is not an active member of the team since she discovered she was pregnant (in Italy in F4C #67) and was pulled from active duty (in Italy in F4C #69).
