Silver Surfer Vol. 3 #122 (November 1996)
- written by George Perez, art by Scot Eaton Silver
Surfer travels to Zenn-La, his homeworld, only to find it being destroyed and fading from
existence. Captain Marvel is trying to stop it but is unsuccessful. The Silver
Surfer then realizes that there is nothing that can be done. Captain Marvel fights
him to try and get him to do something. Silver Surfer then imprisons him into his
board until the fall of Zenn-La is complete. At which point, he lets him go and
travels to Earth, leaving Captain Marvel (and the readers) wondering what took place. |
Warlock Vol. 2 #1 (November 1998) - written by Tom Lyle,
art by Tom Lyle
- Elysius is murdered by an unseen attacker at Captain Mar-Vell's tomb.
A staff with Drax's likeness on it was used to kill her. The body of Mar-Vell
was also taken. Captain Marvel then shows up late for his mother's funeral, getting
Mentor upset. He is evidently not taking it well. We also learn that Mentor
must have taken away his nega-bands sometime ago. Later, Genis arms himself with
weapons and gets a ship to go after his mother's murderer. Elsewhere, more murders
take place, and Adam Warlock confronts Drax about them, when a re-animated corpse of
Captain Mar-Vell appears.
Warlock Vol. 2 #2 (December 1998) - written by Tom Lyle,
art by Tom Lyle
- Warlock fights the re-animated corpse of Drax the Destroyer, while
Genis goes after Drax, thinking him to be his mother's murderer. Gamora then tries
to stop Genis and Warlock eventually intervenes, explaining that Drax cannot be behind the
murders. He then tries to find who is by connecting to the source of Mar-Vell's
body's re-animation. In the Negative Zone, the villain Zyphonn severs the
connection, to stop Warlock from discovering him. The corpse then places the
nega-bands, which were stolen from Titan, on his wrists on Drax, making him controlled by
Syphonn. Genis could have stopped it by blasting his father's corpse, but could not
bring himself to do it. Drax's body leaves... while Genis takes his father's body
back to Titan, promising to return to help them take on Syphonn.
Warlock Vol. 2 #3 (January 1999) - written by Tom Lyle,
art by Tom Lyle
- Warlock, Gamora, and Pip come closer to Drax, who, controlled by
Syphonn, is spurring forth lots of energy as he opens up a portal to the Negative Zone in
Syphonn's plan to destroy the universe. Meanwhile, Genis brings his father's corpse
back to Titan. Mentor, impressed with Genis's determination, decides he is fit to
have the nega-bands once more, if he recovers them. Meanwhile, Warlock successfully
stops Drax just before Genis returns to their side, only for Warlock to be snatched into
the Negative Zone by Syphonn, who is now accompanied by Annihilus and Blastaar.
During this time, Genis recovers the nega-bands and offers to get Gamora and Pip over to
the Negative Zone.
Warlock Vol. 2 #4 (February 1999) - written by Tom Lyle,
art by Tom Lyle
- Syphonn opens the Wheel of Conquer to destroy the universe through a
portal uniting matter with anti-matter. Warlock tries to convince Annihilus and
Blastaar that Syphonn plans to betray them, but with no luck. Meanwhile, Genis,
Drax, Pip, and Gamora manage to break through into the Conqueror Wheel. While the
others face Annihilus and Blastaar, Warlock fights Syphonn and asks him why he doesn't use
the Soul Gem, which he stole from Warlock. He then places it on his head. It
backfires and Syphonn's essence leaves his body. Warlock then returns his gem on his
head. Genis then uses his nega-bands to return them to the positive universe,
where Warlock returns to earth, and Genis goes his separate ways.
