Mjolnir Broken
Marvel Comics

In a parallel universe, the world was infected by a virus, turning almost everyone into zombies. Within a few weeks, nearly every superbeing on Earth including the Avengers, the Fantastic Four, and the X-Men had been transformed into undead creatures. Worse still, 99.99999% of humanity was eaten within several months, causing the zombies to run out of food.

At the exact same time, the herald of Galactus, the Silver Surfer, entered Earth's atmosphere to announce his master was preparing to consume their planet. The zombies saw the Silver Surfer as their next meal and so, began attacking him. Despite being drastically outnumbered, the herald was able to hold his own since the zombies couldn't bite through his impenetrable skin.

Even though victory was near for the Silver Surfer, Thor managed to turn the tables by smashing his face with Mjolnir. Despite the fact the collision caused the hammer to shatter to pieces, it was worth the effort since it caused Galactus' henchman to plummet to the ground. Before he had a chance to counter-attack, the Hulk bit the Silver Surfer's head off, killing him.
