Marvel Reveals Origin of New Silver Surfer, & It's Even Darker Than the Originals
In a dark twist of Silver Surfer 2099's backstory, he works for Mephisto, not Galactus as revealed in Annihilation 2099 #4.

Mephisto forces Silver Surfer 2099 to live with his guilt, making his origin darker and the consequences of his actions inescapable.
