Well, Silver Surfer brings death with him. If you see Silver Surfer coming around the neighborhood, Galactus is not far behind. Now, personally, I feel that the creators made Galactus a bit of a pussy. I mean come on, dude eats planets.

Whatabunchawhiners . . . two, two and a quarter billion years? The star in our system will expand to a red giant in a little over a billion years any way. We need to be outta here long before the Magellanic Cloud gets here.
