After having his home world devoured and completely destroyed by mighty
Galactus, an extraterrestrial being named Zius from a distant planet has devoted his life to save other planets from great devourer’s wrath. He developed a very advanced cloaking technology which is capable of rendering entire planets invisible and thus, saving many of them from
Galactus. He learnt from Shi'ar and Skrulls, that there is something in this known universe which can negate his technology, leaving those planets vulnerable to the World-Eater.
Zius then immediately traveled to Earth to eliminate the very cause and found it within Susan Storm;
Invisible Woman of
Fantastic Four. Upon incapacitating her friends he proceeds with her execution so that the Destroyer of Worlds couldn't find those cloaked worlds using her power. In a desperate attempt to save her,
Mister Fantastic charged her with a blast from his weapon and claimed to Zius that he has taken her power away so; she is no longer a threat to his mission. He checked in to verify and find it to be true.

As Zius and his survivors were heading back, Reed explains that his act actually saved her life by swapping her powers with her brother Johnny Storm. Before he could swap her powers back to her,
Galactus himself appears on Earth. Not only had he destroyed Zius’s ship in his single grasp, he also abducted Johnny to be his newest herald. Even a genius like Reed Richards who is always prepared for every situation was completely taken aback by the complexity of their current situation and doesn't know what to do next.
Since Susan had no prior experience of controlling her new-found power of pyrokinesis, she almost dropped
The Thing from great height when she was trying to catch him mid-air like Johnny does. Infuriated at Reed's power-swapping idea and gotten her brother being drafted into service of
Galactus. However, he is worried more about Johnny pissing off his abductor. He is ejected into space to find himself facing against an alien warrior Kaargan the Unforgiving, who seeks revenge on the World-Eater for destroying his planet.
Now juiced up with power cosmic he unknowingly splitting his attacker in layers and then pieced him together realizing the extent of his capability. He explores the galaxy to face hostile reactions from many alien races towards him who identifies him as a harbinger of death. Meanwhile, with help from their old-friend
Quasar, Reed, Susan and Ben Grimm decides to go for a rescue mission to save Johnny. The real question lies here is that even if they manage to find Johnny, how on Earth they are going to save him from mighty
Galactus or even stand up against his near-limitless cosmic might?
