Find out as Shin meets Sam, Spacium Ray meets Repulsor Ray and “Thwip!” meets “Shuwatch!” Our assembled heroes are immediately split up: While Captain Marvel and Ultraman team up against two giant, rampaging Kaiju, Captain America leads a dangerous extraction mission into the heart of the USP! But they may find their best efforts come too late as our heroes receive the three-word message that chills the blood of all sentient beings: “Galactus is coming!”
