There's not much to do in Attilan except save your game and make sure your team is up-to-date in skills and team skills. When you're ready to face Galactus, talk to the pooch (Lockjaw) and take off. Advance across the first bridge, where you'll be introduced to the Magnetic Shield Generators used by Galactus to protect himself.
Destroy this one, and any others you come across (well, there's actually only one other). Straight ahead from this first Generator, you'll see a Simulator Disc (Piledriver). In the next room, turn left and you'll see a Black Panther action figure. Continue up some stairs, through a room and then down into a large area where there's another Magnetic Shield Generator.
As you come down the stairs, go right and around the corner to pick up a Focus upgrade. Go back the other way and around the corner to get a Body upgrade. Continue across the large platform and enter Aeronautics.
You'll meet Super Skrull, Paibok and the Skrull Empress. The Empress offers you a deal: open the hangar doors so she can escape and she'll give you the key to defeat Galactus. Seems like a bargain, especially since she offers you the services of either Paibok or Super Skrull. (Pick either one, it doesn't matter which.)
Go up the only accessible stairs in the hangar and begin fighting your way through a horde of Galactus Punishers and Ultron Warriors. The path is winding, but there's only ever one way to go, so you shouldn't get lost. Make sure you blow up the walls along the way, at one point, shortly before reach the SAP, you'll find a Focus upgrade.
Continue until you reach the hangar control room and USE the console to open the hangar doors. Go out the door on your right and pick up a sketch book, then the door on the left and get a Strike upgrade. Now go down into the hangar and talk to the Empress.
You know what they say...If it's too good to be true...
Now you've got to fight Paibok and Super Skrull, which is just like every other mini-boss fight you've been through to this point. When they are down, exit by way of the hangar doors to reach Cityscape.
This is another side-scrolling level, though moving from right to left instead of left to right. You'll be keeping pace with Galactus his own bad self; and, occasionally have to dodge bombs from Skrull pilots with bad aim (avoid the red circles).
After the first left turn, go all the way to the edge of the walkway to pick up a Simulator Disc (Ms. Marvel). Continue on until you see a drill used by Galactus to suck the life out of the planet. You can (and it's optional) destroy the drill (and one other) as part of a side quest. Go ahead and use a power on the part of the drill marked with a blue X. Just past the drill is a sketch book to your heros' right (away from the screen) in a little side area.
When you get down to a T-intersection, move toward the camera and pick up a Body upgrade. Then continue away from the screen and then left. Keep going left until you reach a large fire at broken portion of the walkway. There's a Strike upgrade partially hidden behind the fire. Now you can backtrack a little and move "down" (toward the screen).
Keep going until you have your first conversation with Galactus. He'll unleash a horde of Punishers on you. Take care of them, then look for a Simulator Disc (Human Torch). If you go to the T-intersection just past the talk with Galactus, it is to your heros' left (down or toward the screen). Just past this point is the entrance to the Heights of Progress.
First up you have to get up on a ledge where you'll find a Simulator Disc (Dragonman) and a SAP. If you want to do it the "right" way, there's a block nearby you can push/pull into position so you can jump up to the ledge. Or, just have a flyer go up and the rest of the team will automagically appear. Save your game and continue.
Past the SAP, you'll turn right and then left. Right after the left turn, there are little rooms off to each side. The left-hand room has a skill point. Straight ahead lies a fight against Titannus.
Titannus is tough. The only thing in your favor is he frequently ignores you as he is intent on busting up the lab where you're fighting. Like most monsters, Titannus mostly uses devastating, short-range powers. If you stay back and pepper him from range, you should do OK. Beware of the science experiments that jump out at you. If one gets on your back, rapidly tap USE to get it off.
When Titannus is finished, move into the next room, where you'll find two control panels with the green X marks in front of them. Move one hero on a green X and move another hero on the other green X and press USE. The two cells in front of you will open. In the right-hand cell is a Daredevil action figure. In the left-hand cell is a scientist who will give your player- controlled hero a free level-up.
Sweet! Go past the cells and through the door...
"Hello. My name is Galactus and I eat planets."
"Hi, Galactus!"
First up: run away! Yes, that's right, flee Galactus along a walkway in a side-scrolling level. Ignore the beasties that bump in the night around you and just keep moving. At one point, Galactus knocks a tower down in front of you. Look immediately to your heros' left (away from the screen) for another tower that forms a ramp to an upper walkway. Use that to keep moving.
Once you've successfully executed your tactical re-alignment, you'll meet Silver Surfer and he'll offer you a way of getting rid of Galactus. Or, at least, knocking him unconscious. He also revives any of your team that has fallen, so if you reach this spot with only one hero, you're still green...super green, even.
When the fight starts, run left and USE the polarity control, then move to the center of the area and USE another polarity control and then go right and USE a third polarity control. You have to do this while dodging Punishers and avoiding Galactus himself, who occasionally likes to pick you up and squeeze you--if that happens, rapidly tap the key shown on the screen to break free.
Once all three polarity controls have been activated, Galactus releases a large energy burst. Before that happens, Silver Surfer tells you his is going to distract Galactus. Now you get to play the mini-game. As Silver Surfer flies around Galactus, press the keys shown on the screen. Do this successfully and Galactus will hit himself with his energy burst and knock off one-third of his health.
Then, you get to do the whole thing all over again (twice more, in fact!) USE the three polarity controls, play the mini-game with Silver Surfer. Etc. After the third successful mini-game, Galactus blows himself up. Hooray for you! Take the portal back to Attilan. Save your game, then talk to Lockjaw and ask to be sent back to Earth.

All is not well on Earth. First, go around to the marked spots on your map and activate the power consoles. Then, a bunch of Doom-created Iron Men swoop into Stark Tower and kidnap Nick Fury. Go into Iron Man Lab and join Fury in an old-fashioned beat down of about a hundred Iron Men. (They're pushovers. Really.) After you've disposed of a bunch of them, Hank Pym finally gets his EMP generator working and makes Stark Tower save again.
Return to Stark's office and explore a bit. There are upgrades for each of your stats (Body, Strike and Focus) and a sketch book on the table next to Black Widow. You can also play the trivia game, review your game stats and run simulator missions.
When you're ready for the final mission, talk to Nick Fury. He'll fly you to Castle Doom. The first area has no enemies, so relax a little and enjoy the view. As you advance through the main room, a stone staircase will appear before you. Go ahead and climb the stairs, there's nothing to collect in this room.
Go right along the balcony until a stone bridge appears over to the other side. Cross over and go through the next room. In the room beyond, a Y-shaped stone walkway rises out of the floor. Look to the right and left and you'll see statues of knights. Destroy the statues with a ranged attack and treasure chests appear on the floor. Go down and open the chests and you'll get a Daredevil action figure and a skill point.
Continue until you enter the Hall of Many Doors. Ignore the doors on the north and south sides of the room (the camera is stuck in an overhead perspective). Find the spot on the left side of the room where you get the prompt to Enter Door. Press USE to get to the far side of the Hall.
Go down the stairs in the next room and jump into the pit. You'll find yourself in a large room with doors to either side and a statue of doom ahead of you. Directly to your left is a sketch book. You might notice on your map a SAP icon; however, you can't access this point yet. Around the statue of Doom are four upgrades each for Body, Strike and Focus. Those, too, are
