Along with Thor, Galactus is also set to arrive in Season 4, which has been teased by the in-game comic that recently appeared in the Fortnite battle pass. The comic essentially aims to offer details on how the Marvel characters will make their appearances in Fortnite.
The comic book reveals that Thor and Galactus together discover one of the five planets. It further explains that the two aren’t enemies, but they are on a mission to discover five different planets, where the main goal for Galactus is to consume all the planets and gain enough strength to defeat the Black Winter. Thor, on the other hand, has to make sure that those living on those five planets are escorted out safely.
In addition, there are certain details that were found in the game's source code suggesting that fans might get plenty of other exciting Marvel-themed battle pass skins in the new season.
These 4 teasers were all added to Fortnite's website, and do y'all think they refer to battlepass skins?
