Annihilus is one of those characters that seems major but doesn't get anything outside of the comics. He's never been in a Movie, never gets shown in any show outside or Earths Mightiest Heroes in a minor role, no Hasbro action figure of him, no mention in Marvel Rivals. Ect
Comic books already have Supergirl, Batgirl, Spider-Woman, and She-Hulk—so why couldn't there be a female Thor? Besides, I feel like the mantle of Valkyrie is still strongly tied to Brunnhilde, who has such a long-standing history.
Now that it’s over I feel like I can finally say I hated it
Definitely a divisive one, but I adored it! I found it to be such a good way of presenting the awe of a concept, through a combination of direct exposition and also slow-building through character moments. I also love the exploration of moral ambiguity within different sides of the story.
I would warn new readers to not expect any sort of big climax at the end though... It's more so a big grand introduction to this particular era of Eternals.
I began reading comics 2 months ago, with my first one ever being Infinity Gauntlet. I immediately fell in love and began hitting up my lcs each weekend to see what else I could find. I’m sure you can see I’m on a bit of a graphic novel run. And I even got my first DC comic too. I also stopped reading secret wars after a few pages in because I found out there’s a HUGE story by Johnathan Hickman collected in omnibuses that I should definitely read first.
What should I look into grabbing next? Definitely gonna get Hulk Gray and Iron Man Demon in a bottle soon. I’m glad to be apart of this community!
They say that the super soldier serum put him at the peak of human strength. But the feats he pulls off in the comics and mcu goes way past normal human things
I was at my local comic shop and saw these two omnibuses sitting in packed cellophane both brand new, Annihilation and Annihilation Conquest for $200 total. I guess they hadn't checked Ebay lately 😁 what do you all think good buy or meh?
Which of your favorite character(s) do you feel has had the worst character assassination and did they ever recover from it? What comic series/arc did the assassination happen and when (if ever) did they recover?
Spoiler.
This man knew. And never said anything. Holy shit. And then he’s gone. Fuck me mate. Fuuuuuck.
