History
The past history of the Silver Surfer of Earth-944 mirrors that of his Earth-616 counterpart up until the Fantastic Four's first battle against Galactus. While the Watcher of Earth-616 sent the Human Torch to the Worldship of Galactus, in this reality the Watcher sent Mister Fantastic. In this reality, Reed Richards was so distracted by finding the right object through rigorous testing that he was too late to stop Galactus from consuming the Earth and killing the Fantastic Four.[1] When Aron the Rogue Watcher tricked Earth-616's Fantastic Four into battling the Galactus of Earth-944, the Silver Surfer changed sides and attempted to assist the Fantastic Four in their battle, but was ultimately slain by Galactus.[2]
