EGO: Beginning and End!

Ego has withdrawn his minions, and begins to project images into Thor's mind. Thor relives Ego's origin, as Egros. When he comes to, he discovers that while they had Ego distracted, Galactus has attached thrusters to Ego's south pole, launching him into exile. Galactus then agrees to free Firelord if a suitable replacement is found, and such a one is the Destroyer.
