The Wanderers' ship gets caught in the crossfire and is disabled. Thor strikes Galactus with Mjiolnir but Galactus shrugs off the blow and hurls Thor toward Ego's surface. There he finds the Wanderers whom Ego has brought to safety.

Thor joins his strength to his hammer, unleashing a surge of Asgardian energy at Galactus, driving him back to his ship and forcing him to retreat.

With the Wanderers' ship too damaged for space flight, Ego transforms his surface into a paradise, inviting them to make him their new home.
