Anyone following Annihilation?

[hychi]

what happened???? pm me if you don't wan't to spoil. I did not even knew it was already out

[Street Worm]

Haven't been to the comic shop yet this week,

but yeah-
I'm following it..................

*wonders what happened*

in general-

Geffin ain't no Starlin,
but if that's all we get I'll keep reading-
lots of old (& new) favorites)

[Evil Temptation]

If you are... WTF?

I'm so not happy with what happened...

Is this a good thing, a bad thing, accident? I can't tell yet... but they better not screw it up... [img]mad.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/cry.gif[/img]

Here you go, hopefully this works

<font color="black">It appears Mistress Death has finally "accepted" Thanos. Drax punches his heart through his chest.</font>

Holy Cow! [img]rolleyes.gif[/img]

(needless to say I've picked up my comics for this week)

SPOILER

I'm sure it'll turn out that he has two hearts or something along those lines............
but, damn!-
I really hope he's not 'gone' for good (I know this is Marvel, but I'd hate to have to wait-like I'm waiting for Thor to return-for years)

And when the hell does Death show up as a little girl, btw?
Isn't that a DC-Gaiman Death?

End Spoiler ^

I also really wish they never changed the look of Drax

a wee bit of 'post-annihilation' info here-

http://www.comicbookresources.com/ne...em.cgi?id=8429

the two one shots look interesting.......
never really been a Nova fan, but we'll see-
same with the Super Skrull..........

No news of a new ongoing Surfer, though
(that's what I was looking for)

There's a number of cosmic series that I still have to pick up that came out in '04 & '05
(when I was going 'cold turkey' on comics)

Drax mini
Thanos &
Beta Ray Bill...........

I think there was also a Warlock mini series in that time-
might explain something (?)

any others I'm missing feel free to list-

[Evil Temptation]

Ah yes, those are all good to pick up, especially the Thanos one. It explains what he is up to now and what the deal is with Death and Skreet.

There was a Warlock mini, but I don't think it had anything to do with the regualr Warlock, it may have been an alternate Warlock, but I may have to go and re-read those to make sure...

Also, had an interesting idea pop into my head while I was browsing some forums...

What if Galactus does get free and decides to bring Thanos back to life as his new herald? What better way to punish the titan than to make him a slave to the Hunger. Of course he'd break free eventually, just as all others have, but it would be cool to see, even if for a bit.

i'm looking forward to the super skrull spin off, he's always been one of my favorite characters so glad to see him getting more attention these days

[Evil Temptation]

Yeah, that should be good. Especially since the Skrulls are pretty much gone now. It'll be interesting to see who takes their place.

I don't know, maybe it's me, but does anyone else think that Marvel is playing "Spring Cleaning"?

First House of M comes and all those non-used/overly-used mutants are gone.

Then Civil War locks up the non-used/overly used super heroes, and the Thunderbolts take all the non-used/overly used villians.

Now Annihilation is wiping out all the non-used/overly used cosmic characters.

It's like they decided to wipe clean everyone they don't want, and just shrink down to a core group of characters.

Personally, I kinda like it.
