I'm pretty sure they offer the whole story in one book now. Great read. Totally worth the effort of finding.

To take this another, even more nerdier route -

This is another reason why to be pissed they just completely ****ed up the story of the Silver Surfer and Galactus in that idiotic Fantastic Four film. If you're going to take on the story of the Infinity Gauntlet in a movie, the Surfer and Galactus are crucial, iirc. Not to mention how many down the road crossover movies they could have with the Avengers and FF, and also not to mention Spider Man and the X-Men.

What could have been (and may still be, who knows).
