Ego the Living Planet traps the Silver Surfer on his planetary body in hopes of consuming him. He needs the Surfer's energy to give him enough strength to counteract the thrusters that Galactus had put on Ego in order to control his movements. The Surfer activates the thrusters and threatens to ram Ego into a nearby sun if he is not freed. Ego complies and the Silver Surfer leaves victorious.
