Nenora continues to rule the Kree empire as Supreme Leader, betraying and eliminating the only two remaining Skrulls who are aware of her true nature. She also sends Ronan the Accuser after the Silver Surfer, believing him to be the cause of the destruction on their border worlds. Ronan catches up with the Surfer and Nova once they leave the Coalsack. Surfer restrains Ronan long enough to leave in pursuit of the imposter, whom he tracks to another world in the area.
