Other than the Silver Surfer, there have been 11 Heralds of Galactus. There were also five heroes who fulfilled the role for the duration of one story or arc. Name those five.

(Up to one guess in subsequent posts.)

1) Dazzler
2) Doctor Strange
3) Johnny Storm
4) Thor
5)


Incorrect: Jean Grey, Scarlet Witch, Professor X, Spider-Man, Reed Richards (unconfirmed), Punisher, Iron Man, Ghost Rider, Aunt May, Rick Jones, Frankie Raye, Mar-Vell, Rachel Summers, Wolverine, Vision, Sue Storm, Cable, Hulk, Quasar, Daredevil, Hercules, Captain America, Wonder Man, Genis-Vell

Yes! Rick partnered with Rom just before returning to the Hulk title during the long, classic, Peter David run.

Rom's Marvel comic ran for 75 issues, but as a lapsed licensed character, Marvel no longer can depict or refer to him directly. Rom is currently with publisher IDW.

Circa Rom #27, Galactus threatened Galador, Rom's homeworld. In exchange for sparing Galador, Rom agreed to lead Galactus to a different world to consume. The world was the home of the Dire Wraiths, Rom's nemeses. The world proved toxic for Galactus, who was unable to consume it and in fact nearly perished in the attempt.

So Rom acted as a Herald in that instance.

So Chaim completes the list and is up next!

When the Serpent Society was formed, which villain attended the initial meeting but declined to join the organization?

Nope. She refused the invitation to the initial meeting outright, and later sent agents to infiltrated the team and take it over (though she lost that pretty quickly).

Princess Python? I know she had trouble since she was unpowered and tried to run away but was caught, but it sounds like you are referring to someone else.

I am referring to someone else. She joined the Society, she just got expelled for cowardice after the mission you are remembering. The person I'm referring to attended the initial meeting (unlike Viper) but walked out without joining (unlike Cobra and Princess Python).

Paladin has it! Constrictor walked out on them, believing that he was better than them and could make more money staying independent.

I read Mark Gruenwald's run on Cap as it came out. (I think I dropped it around "Cap Wolf".) I remember that a high-profile snake character refused to join. At the time, Constrictor appeared a LOT! It was just a matter of remembering which then-prominent character it was.

Still love me some Diamondback! *sigh*

i've only read a couple of issues with Diamondback, but I liked her immediately! She definitely interacted well with Cap.

Ok, new question:

Michael Jon carter, a.k.a. Booster Gold, was originally going to call himself "Goldstar", a name which he repurposed as his own company and which his sister Michelle eventually used as her own costumed identity. "Booster" was a nickname from his days playing quarterback in future Gotham City. The reason he became "Booster Gold" was a mishap at the press conference that introduced Booster to the world.

"Ladies and gentlemen, would you please welcome..." The person introducing him paused and whispered, "What did you say your name was?"

A nervous Booster stammered, "uhh...Booster...no Gold--"

"The one..the only...BOOSTER GOLD!"

Who was this famous person who introduced Booster Gold to an unsuspecting world?
