Chief's Custom Comic Heroes! Added Galactus and his Heralds!

[ibechief]

I have not posted in a while and going through my computer stumbled on some old cards I created at some point in January.

I would rather post them here than see them go to waste sitting in a folder.

Galactus' 6th Herald was the Traitorous Terrax!

Big G had quite a few heralds and his 7th was seriously hot!

[ibechief]

Arguably one of the most powerful heralds ever created Morg was Galactus' 8th herald and presents such a large threat that he earns himself the pleasure of being on the wrong side of a battle against former and current herald alike. Ironic that he would be the one to help Big G defeat one of his other great creations.

So are you back then, buddy?

The 9th herald to Galactus is quite a mystery. Little is known about the creature only known as Red Shift. Despite being drawn as a Korbinite like Beta Ray Bill many character designers have expressed that he has no connection to that race.

Sadly no. Though if time permits, and it probably won't, Chelle and I will pop in from time to time to say "hi" or to lurk in the shadows.

It's really not quite the same around here without you guys. Hope all works out well for your family.

BTW, if you ever do find the time, let's talk about that Destroyer design.

In a strange twist of events Galactus empowers his tenth herald Johnny Storm with the Power Cosmic after he swaps powers with Sue. Johnny while clumsy and unfamiliar with his sisters powers remains a force to be reckoned with and is the only being capable of exposing thousands of hidden worlds for The devourer.

Yeah, at most I think we will have a few min every now and then. I think when I was making him I wanted to portray his comic cannon. He really was a force to be reckoned with. Absent his sword and without a mechanic to become more powerful the more Asgardians he has charging him I think I kept it simple enough to use without really diminishing his comic representation.

The destroyer is one of those devices that can be either amazingly powerful; enough to defeat a celestial or weak enough to be defeated by a handful of lesser heroes depending on who the writer is and what device plot he is serving at the time. When he was in the service of Big G he relies almost entirely on his Beam attack which was made much more powerful with the power cosmic.

I tried to reflect this by designing him in such a way as to promote the use of that s/a absent The Destroyer's movement in that turn. So he is still vulnerable to swarmers and long range kiters.

The 11th Herald of Big G Stardust is quite interesting as well. Stardust is one of the few characters not officially given a gender. Many writers have listed Stardust as a she and many as a he. Whatever the case may be Stardust does appear to be a very hardy addition to Galactus' growing brood.

Galactus' 12th and current Herald is a strange bird. Pastor Mike is a small but passionate preacher from a small town that deals with events on a much larger scale. He shows promise and as part of the deal that spares billions of lives is given the new power cosmic and takes the place of Silver Surfer.
