people of Newhaven (over six billion, almost all from different species) - not all shown
Galactus
There’s also a brief flashback sequence of the Surfer’s origin which features the following:
Norrin Radd
Shalla-Bal
people of Zenn-La – BTS
Galactus
Human Torch (Johnny Storm)
The Thing (Ben Grimm)
Mister Fantastic (Reed Richards)
Note: In this issue the Surfer states that during his “centuries of servitude” he led Galactus to “millions of worlds.” The last in-story reference to how long the Surfer served Galactus was something like a century so this represents an increase. Also, the Surfer's body count is really skyrocketing, isn't it?

In SS3 6, the Silver Surfer thinks to himself "In the CENTURIES after I left her (Shalla Bal), to serve as herald to Galactus, I kissed her not at all". The obvious reading of that line is that the Surfer's servitude to Galactus lasted centuries.

Re: Silver Surfer v6 #9
Yes, you're right, in that issue the Silver Surfer clearly states that he had served Galactus for centuries. However, there is contradictory evidence from the Silver Surfer: Homecoming Graphic Novel. In that story, Moondragon requests a download of all information on the Silver Surfer and part of it reads "Subject (Silver Surfer) honored this agreement (with Galactus) for close to one solar century."Michael wrote:In SS3 6, the Silver Surfer thinks to himself "In the CENTURIES after I left her (Shalla Bal), to serve as herald to Galactus, I kissed her not at all". The obvious reading of that line is that the Surfer's servitude to Galactus lasted centuries.
I've always wondered if anybody else had noticed this bit of data and if it was considered canon or not. Personally, given the fact that Shalla-Bal didn't appear to age much (or at all) during the time that she and Norrin Rodd were separated, I would actually prefer it if the time which the Surfer spent serving Galactus was as short as possible.
