“Hell yeah he fights aliens. He also saved his home planet, Zenn-La, from Galactus. While everyone else was losing their shit, he went by himself to meet with Galactus and was able to convince him not to eat Zenn-La. But in exchange, he had to leave it forever to serve as Galactus’ herald. His life got all fucked up after that, but he still has hope.”
