...Whatever that means.
Surfer looks kind of Blacked there, but the F4 costumes look old... gay. Midway point between when he was a glistening white man to when he went to Africa. It would be weird for them to have another dead Galactus story without following up on Cates' stuff. I mean it's the perfect chance.
Maybe Abraxas?
If they kill him twice in one year though it just destroys any stakes if they do follow up with his cosmic importance. I know Cates doesn't care but I assume someone does, and Waid isn't exactly a spring chicken, though he did do some Galactus draining...
Probably just bring him back at the end and they'll do a tie in to Cates' stuff like a year later where Galactus gets revived in a page and no further importance put on it.
Hate Marvel.
