History

After Galactus confines the Silver Surfer to Earth, the Fantastic Four offers him membership to the team which he accepts. The new Fantastic Five becomes a powerhouse team that easily takes out the likes of Mole Man, Doctor Doom and the Frightful Four. While the original Fantastic Four are on an intergalactic mission, Surfer visits a mission where he has a run-in with Mephisto who announces that the original Fantastic Four have become his prisoners. Mephisto says that unless he becomes his herald that the Fantastic Four will die and to show that he is serious, he kills Johnny Storm. Surfer can't stand seeing his Earth family killed so he obliges. The remaining Fantastic Four are released and soon disband having now lost two team members. The integrity and morality of the Surfer soon acts a counterweight to Mephisto's evil which results in a total absence of evil on Earth. There is no need for superheroes so teams like the Avengers disband and Earth becomes a place of peace. [1]
