Synopsis for "The Throne, the Power, the Damned and the Devil"

Future Doctor Strange's astral form recruits the Hulk and they go kidnap two leopard-headed soul stock brokers who borrowed a bunch of Earth souls from Mephisto, with the intention of paying him back once Earth is destroyed by the cosmic train. Strange then stuffs the souls of the two soul brokers into Nebulon the Celestial Man, who is manipulating the train's controller for his own ends. The Hulk beats up Nebulon, then Strange stuffs the wily soul brokers into Nebulon to make the real controller spasm. This knocks the planet Vodan into empty space, so Namor and the Silver Surfer team up to create a wormhole to teleport Vodan to a sun. But the Silver Surfer needs energy, so the Vodani Princess sacrifices herself to power the Silver Surfer. Then, this wormhole not only saves Vodan, but also moves the train slightly off-course, saving Earth as well. Then, to top things off, Mephisto shows up to eat the souls of the two soul brokers who are now inside Nebulon, so Mephisto eats Nebulon. This sets the train back onto its normal course and everyone goes back home except for Doctor Strange, who has been kidnapped by Mephisto. However, he has a plan.

Solicit Synopsis

“THE BEST DEFENSE” FINALE!

• The lost Atlanteans. The Train. The bedsheet man. Dead Steve. The Stock Exchange of Souls. Trust us, it all makes sense.

• In fact, it makes enough sense to destroy our entire solar system... Unless four very different heroes can come together to stop it.
