The End of Eternity Pt. 1
Silver Surfer - 13- The End of Eternity Pt.
1 Pip! Look! Is that not the most magnificent celestial object you've ever seen? C'mon, Draxy, you tellin' me the Beacon's taken us a trillion light years to ooh'n ahh over an icicle? No, my little friend, more likely it's taking us to -- -- that! It can't be! But it is! Another Universal Library! That means we're gonna know everything! Look out, Kree -- 'cause I'm gonna use it to free all the trolls! Now what's goin' on? I know only one way to find out -- It begins! Ugh, Silver Surfer, do you truly expect me to believe you wish to resume your duties as my herald? I do not "wish" to do so, but I will if only you let me spend one brief moment with Shalla Bal! Very well, my repentant son -- I shall bestow upon you the blessing your heart most desires -- Oh, mighty one, never can I thank you enough! You have given me Silver Surfer! My greatest dream! I beg your pardon, Silver Surfer I did not desire to disturb your slumber.
Watcher? Why do you come to me? Well do I know your vow of non-interference -- And you know I have broken it in times of great peril! What is it, Watcher? Have you found Zenn-La? Does trouble threaten my home? It threatens us all! But just as once were you the herald of Galactus, so now think of me as the harbinger of greater entities.
It is from them you will receive your answers Prepare yourself, Silver Surfer -- You are about to learn the true nature of the universe! Those voices! They ring throughout my being! What manner of entities are these? Who are you who overwhelm my senses? Who are too vast for my mortal eyes to see? My sister is Infinity, the essence of space.
I am Eternity, made up of all time.
Together, we are the universe personified Created by the collective minds of all the sentient beings that have ever lived! Look well at events now occurring - I know that world! It is called Harmony! A malignant force has gained the power to cause time to run backward.
Soon the entire cosmos will be affected.
If this abomination is not stopped, all creation will end before it even began! No! Gone are the dreamers of Harmony! Eternity! Infinity! Surely, you will not let the universe come to this end! We are the Alpha and the Omega but although we see all possible outcomes, we do not know which will inevitably occur! Nor can we employ our vast power directly.
To do so would cause the very catastrophe we seek to avoid.
For that reason we must use a champion to act in our stead.
A being whose place in time and space has already been wrenched from him, he will not be affected by the reversals that occur.
Time truly grows short.
Be warned, Silver Surfer, that you too will inevitably perish unless you succeed as the universe's champion! What would you have me do? You must use the power of Galactus and the soul of Zenn-La to stop the agent of our destruction.
Before it is too late! Who is this madman? The tides of malignant entropy are controlled by one you already know - Thanos! Thanos Thanos Chaos! See what Thanos has wrought! Mock me now, if you dare! What's that, my lady? I can't hear your words.
You wouldn't be ignoring me, would you? After all, not even a goddess would dare ignore a man who possesses the ultimate weapon So young, so very delicate Soon I'll crush the entire universe between my hands in the greatest offering Chaos could have -- The Time Reversal Field is out of power! Oh, my lady, I am sorry.
I have failed I must return to the Source.
And then, once and for all, I shall prove myself worthy of your love As all known as Eternity and Infinity may be, I cannot help but doubt their belief in me I do not feel like a "universal champion," but rather like Norrin Radd, a man who well knows his own shortcomings If I am to use the power of Galactus to save all of creation, then must I go to its very source and seek my former master's aid! Already does the universe seem smaller, and less filled with energy -- There! Galactus' energy signal will lead me directly to him! Silverado! Oh man, am I glad to see you! Nova! Why are you here with the mighty one, instead of questing for his next energy source? Truth to tell -- I just can't seem to get away Uh-oh - here I go again! Nova out of control like this? Incre -- (Incredible) Galactus sending his cables down to feed on a world he has already drained? Impossible! Unless Like Harmony, this planet, Nova, and Galactus' ship are moving through a reversal of time! Now time is going forward again! This is not the condition I saw before Surfer! Galactus! I come with a purpose most dire! Former herald! Why are you free, while I, the unconquerable Galactus, careen uncontrollably through time? Are you the one responsible for the madness in which I have become ensnared? Are you the cause of my burning hunger!? Ah, Lady - Look well at the most dangerous point in the universe And a lethal one, even to me Do you remember how your perfidy that brought me here? Abandoned, I sought to abort my trip to the far reaches of space And in so doing found myself amid such fascinating destructive force that I had to study it.
My experiments confirmed that this was an inter-dimensional nexus The source of all energy - Everywhere Because of its primal nature, the energy here is inextricably woven with time Making it possible for me to manipulate the one - By controlling the other No applause, Lady Chaos? No praise for my achievement? What do I have to do to win you?! What did you say, my lady? Yes, you're right! I cannot continue my scattershot approach I must contain the entire fountain beam it out to destroy the whole universe at once! Galactus! Stop! Nova! My herald! You dare take the prodigal one's treacherous side?! Surfer! "Treachery?" The only treachery here is yours! The last time you saw him, the Surfer saved your life! He's not your enemy! When the Great Hunger is upon me, all creatures are enemies! And no one knows better than you, my Nova, how ravenous I now am -- Again does time reverse, and both Nova and great Galactus are powerless to resist! Ebb and flow of past and present here grows more erratic - Nova! You must tell me! How did this begin? As Galactus and I entered this system, we were struck by some weird purple beam and time started going bizerk Big G's chowed down on that little morsel more times than I can count, but he never gets to feel full -- Because he always returns to the moment before he absorbed its energy! And the big guy isn't exactly a good sport on the diet front.
The hungrier he gets, the crazier he acts.
Where is my sustenance?! I hunger! Oh, man - I've never been so scared in my life.
You gotta do something! I came here to ask for Galactus' help! Instead I find that both of you have been trapped by the very being I must defeat! C'mon, Silverado, how about some good news? Aw, Big G, you're not really mad, are you? All is in readiness No entire civilization Not the science of the Kree, nor the determination of the Skrull Has ever been able to match the feat I am about to accomplish By staying here at the core we will be immune to the effects of the Time Reversal Field.
Together we can appreciate the truest expression of my love - Annihilation of everything that is.
The Kirby-Lee Quadrant! Once home to millions of worlds, now it is an empty victim of the reversal of time! How do I defeat a foe as ruthless as Thanos? Where do I even go to find him? Wait! What is that? Not a beam, but a widespread field -- You must hurry, Silver Surfer! Even Eternity has almost run out of time! Eternity! Infinity! I know you dare not use your power directly.
But within you are all times and all places! Guide me to Thanos while you still can! The reversal of time indeed has no effect on me But for the rest of the universe, it is a much more terrible story! SHALLA BAL! Shalla Bal! Zenn-La! The people of all the worlds on which I have been - I cannot fail them! For the first time since I became the Silver Surfer do I fully understand why.
The universe needs me.
I will not allow it to die! Never before have I seen so much energy.
This must be the force behind Thanos' field.
If I can destroy it -- No! Not "if!" I shall destroy it! The end is almost here! Thanos' ship! It is from there that he must be controlling the power! You seek to stop me, man of Zenn-La? Are you so ignorant that you do not know you haven't a chance?
