Annihilation
Drax the Destroyer remains on a ship with Paibok, Lunatik, and the Blood Brothers. They are to be transported to an intergalactic prison, but the ship crashes on Earth under mysterious circumstances.
Drax attacks the others to keep them from harming innocent lives. His intelligence comes back to him at random intervals during his fight with the other prisoner. Although seemingly killed by the Skrull Paibok, a new body emerges from the remains, appearing to have lost some of his strength and resilience, as well as his ability to fly and shoot energy blasts.
However, his intellect has returned to its original level, and he has taken a liking to using knives in battle. He also takes the role of protector of a young Alaskan girl named Cammi whom he seems determined to protect at all costs. This Drax with a new body defeats Lunatik and one of the Blood Brothers.
Meanwhile, Thanos of Titan stands at the edge of the universe and peruses in a conversation with Death, who reveals that "Something Wonderful" is about to happen, and that Thanos would do well to learn from it.
Death appears to be referring to the coming of a massive insectoid military force (revealed to be called the Annihilation Wave) through the expanding edge of the universe known as "The Crunch," which immediately sets to the destruction of the Kyln structures - artificial moons that serve as both galaxy-wide power generators and a death-row prison - that orbit the Crunch. The emergence of this force and the destruction of the Kyln is referred to as "Annihilation Day."
The Annihilation Wave cuts a swath to the planet of Xandar, where it quickly destroys the planet's surface and seemingly wipes out all of the Nova Corps, leaving Richard Rider as the organization's only survivor.
Seemingly unrelated to the Annihilation Wave acts, the Kree Ronan the Accuser is arrested in the midst of his duties; the Silver Surfer's realizes of something being amiss; and the Super-Skrull remains in hiding on a Kree starbase.
Four days after the Annihilation Wave struck Xandar, Nova wakes up to find out he is the sole survivor. In an attempt to carry them both to safety, Nova allows Xandarian Worldmind to install both the entire Nova Force and the Worldmind itself within his body.
Around this time, Annihilus attempts to capture the current and former Heralds of Galactus, as well as Galactus himself, presumably in order to study and harness their Power Cosmic. The Silver Surfer learns of the Annihilation Wave and of the attempt by Annihilus's "Seekers" to capture the various heralds, primarily through the use of "Currs," dog-like beasts on leashes made out of cosmic energy. During the course of this event, the Seekers succeed in killing former herald Air-Walker and in capturing Terrax and Morg.
Simultaneously, Kl'rt the Super-Skrull attempts to stop the Annihilation Wave from destroying the planet where his son lives and to come to terms with his own past and nature.
Kl'rt leads a valiant but unsuccessful defense of a Skrull planet from the Annihilation Wave. Kl'rt reflects on his past as one of the Skrull Empire's most powerful and loyal defenders, and on the irony that his many failures (particularly against the Fantastic Four) have made him a pariah within the empire.
At about this time, Ronan the Accuser is on the run from Kree authorities since his trial, and seeks those who testified against him. His travels lead him to Godthab Omega, in search of Tana Nile, a witness in his case.
