Strange #157
In "Que la lumière soit!", Rom faces his most desperate challenge yet as he lures Galactus into the Dark Nebula, daring the cosmic devourer to consume the Wraith's home universe. With Sal Buscema's dynamic art and Joe Sinnott's precise inks bringing the clash of titans to life, Bill Mantlo crafts a high-stakes showdown where even Galactus meets his match in a world too deadly to devour. The issue ends with a shocking twist: Galactus, humbled but amused, banishes Rom and his allies to an unknown corner of space—leaving them stranded and adrift. Jean Frisano's striking cover captures the moment of cosmic defiance, a 6,50 FRF comic from 1983 that stands as a bold chapter in the Spaceknights saga.
In "Galactus contre le Soleil Noir...", Rom leads the cosmic devourer Galactus to the Dark Nebula, daring him to consume the Wraith's home universe. Though Galactus unleashes his full power, the toxic world nearly destroys him, leaving the entity both furious and strangely impressed by Rom’s cunning. Enraged by the failure, Galactus exiles the Spaceknights, scattering Galador into an unknown region of space—leaving Rom and his allies stranded and adrift.
