History Behind Issue: Continued from Silver Surfer/Warlock #1

Plot: The Infinity Watch and the Silver Surfer repel the demons and correct the portal breach to open to the correct location. Moondragon finds Shalla Bal and retrieves her across the portal. Warlock initially, and then the rest, quickly realize that they have retrieved the shell (or body) of Shalla Bal, but that the soul no longer is there. Warlock, Surfer and Pip travel into Death's realm in order to attempt and retrieve it. They are expected and are forced to fight their way through hordes of dead soldiers. Mistress Death then stops the fight and allows Warlock to explain the meaning of their intrusion. Though she would like to help, she tells them that she cannot reveal he who has her soul because of previous pacts. Instead, she transports the three to Hades where they are once again expected, and Mephisto is found holding what appears to be Shalla Bal's soul.
