Dialogue[]
Caption: The immense Cabal station begins its countdown to destruction, and in the confusion, our heroes make their escape.
Caption: After Red-Skull's station explodes, the Fantastic Four head for the anomalu, intent on finally saving Mister Fantastic from his temporal prison...
Ant-Man: I hate to rush anybody, but that anomaly is looking reeeeaaal unhealthy since we cut the power keeping it stable.
H.E.R.B.I.E.: Mr. Lang is correct. While time is no longer resetting inside the anomaly, its instability is increasing exponentially. At this rate it will inevitably collapse, destroying everything inside it. Ant-Man: Then we'd better hurry before anyone else shows up.
- Transmission #1 - Upon starting the Quest
Invisible Woman: Namor! You came back! I can't find Norrin anywhere, and we need someone to watch the exit while we get Reed!
Namor: You mistake my purpose Susan. I am here to stop you, not to help you. Namor: Richards cannot be trusted. He claims to have the best interests of all at heart, but is incapable of seeing past his own obsessions! Invisible Woman: Then you two have that in common Namor. Summoner, we don't have time for this! Namor: I haven't forgotten the last time we battled Summoner. This time I will not be so restrained... Namor: Imperius Rex!
- Transmission #2 - Before fighting Namor
Thing: We're back inside, but I can't see Stretch anywhere! How can somethin' so big be so confuse'n?! Ant-Man: Quantum. Quantum anything makes everything more confusing. H.E.R.B.I.E.: Dr. Richards is directly ahead. I detect the Silver Surfer is with him, though there is something else as well. Some sort of distortion? Invisible Woman: Reed! Norrin! Finally! We need to go, it's not safe here!
Silver Surfer: Reed has been behaving erratically, and refuses to leave the anomaly.
Mister Fantastic: I did it Susan! I finally did it! How to escape, how to be free from this place! Invisible Woman: No Reed, this was our doing. We're breaking you out of this prison, but we have to hurry! Mister Fantastic: Not the time-loop Sue, the Battlerealm! It's so simple as to be almost comical. Please, let me explain...
- Transmission #3
Mister Fantastic: I kept finding this device. Nowhere near as advanced as H.E.R.B.I.E., but still quite impressive. Ant-Man: M.I.C.R.O.! I must have dropped it during one of the resets! Mister Fantastic: It was a little damaged, but repairs were quick enough to make, and I saw that it was already calibrated to work with the Silver Surfer's Power Cosmic. Thing: Yeah, yeah, dat's real fascinate'n Slim Jim, but we gotta hustle! Mister Fantastic: And that was when I had my epiphany. This device, coupled with my beacon, energized by the Power Cosmic, could be used to send a signal.
Human Torch: Reed! We do not have time for this man! Mister Fantastic: A signal to a higher power within the Battlerealm. Mister Fantastic: A signal I could send... Mister Fantastic: TO GALACTUS.
- Transmission #4
Invisible Woman: That's impossible...and even if you could... Mister Fantastic: It's as easy as pressing a button Susan. The only hard part will be when Galactus arrives. Mister Fantastic: His hunger will drive him to seek out the core at the heart of the Battlerealm. If Galactus consumes the core, the Battlerealm itself will begin to collapse. Mister Fantastic: That collapse will tear open rifts in space and time. It is through those rifts that everyone will be able to escape, back to our home dimensions. Mister Fantastic: Back to our children. Invisible Woman: Reed...no. No, I can't let you do that. Consign an entire dimension to oblivion, in the hope that a world-ending monster will save us? Invisible Woman: No! You are coming with us and we are leaving this prison behind. I don't know what your time here has done to you, but we will sort this out later! Invisible Woman: Summoner! Subdue my husband, we don't have any more time to waste!
