Issue Description

A special Silver Surfer-centric issue! What happens when Silver Surfer discovers the discarded wand of Molecule Man? And why is Tigra in grave danger because of this discovery?

All The Ways Of Power!

The Silver Surfer chances upon the Molecule Man's discarded wand, but proves invulnerable to its power of possessing the bodies of those who touch it, so the wand instead recreates the body of the Molecule Man. At his request, the Surfer relates his origin, which gives the insane evildoer the idea of emulating Galactus and destroying the entire planet. When the Surfer tries to stop him, the Molecule Man imprisons him easily. Soon the Surfer's board is sighted hovering near the Baxter Building and, since the Fantastic Four are away, the Avengers investigate. The board takes them to the Silver Surfer, who joins them in confronting the Molecule Man.
