Stories

The Green of Eden · 30 pages
Cosmic defender Beta Ray Bill is approached by a band of monks who ask for his protection. The monks turn out to be Skrulls who are looking for a new god after the Secret Invasion and have decided Bill should be their new deity. Bill and his new pals are attacked by Skrulls who are trying to kill the monks as heretics. When their first attack fails, they form a Super Skrull patterned after the Warriors Three. Once the battle is concluded, Bill takes off for the stars and the Super Skrull has a change of heart and decides to be the new defender of his brother monks.

Publisher’s description

SECRET INVASION has ended. The Skrull armies have been routed and destroyed. In the wake of his battle in aid of Thor and Asgard, Beta Ray Bill has departed Earth once more, to bring justice and order to the stars. But when Bill becomes savior of a space-faring alien colony, he'll discover that perhaps - just perhaps - it's possible to be too much of a hero. Soaring action and adventure starring your favorite horse-faced Demigod of Thunder, by Kieron Gillen (NEW UNIVERSAL: 1949) and Dan Brereton (GOD-SIZED THOR)!
