Thor commands Mjolnir to return to him, and so it must. They continue their battle, while Hercules returns with the body of Holmes, and in drawing close, the spirit returns to his body. While Thor changes back to Blake to check on Krista, Firelord arrives on Earth, and at the selfsame hospital. Hercules and Firelord begin to battle, and Blake's cane is knocked out a window. Blake races to the ground and changes to Thor, and then he stops the battle, realizing who Firelord is - herald to Galactus. Firelord then summons Galactus, and Galactus plans to feast this day.
