Synopsis for "Behold..."Edit

After the destruction of Earth-82432, the three sole survivors--Dr. Strange, Phoenix, and the Silver Surfer--return. The three attempt to resurrect Eternity, but are dissuaded by Eternity's ghost, who wanted to act as an object lesson for the multiverse. The Silver Surfer and Phoenix then leave for parts unknown, but Dr. Strange reasons that as a Sorcerer Supreme, he would not be welcome in another Sorcerer Supreme's universe. He instead decides to honor his vow and remain behind in the universe, even if he was all that was left of that universe, until he perished from hunger and thirst.

NotesEdit

"Behold..." is a sequel to, and the final appearance of, the universe from What If? #32.
