3.0

Not as consistently good as Annihilation, and a step slightly down from War of Kings, but that's partly due to my lack of interest in the Inhumans or Imperial Guard. The one-shot reprinted in the opener is fantastic, as good as Annihilation, Guardians of the Galaxy and Nova, but the Inhumans and Imperial Guard minis are merely OK, and the Son of Hulk miniseries, beyond being only tangentially tied into the project, is boring... I gave up on it an issue and a half in.

This was a big one 14 comics, 3 separate mini-series. One of the best parts was that 4 issues included some of the Micronauts (I'm a huge fan). I love reading Marvel Cosmic stuff, all these lesser known heroes are sometimes more interesting than reading yet another story about Spider-Man or Cap or Tony. Oh yea and Thanos is back.

The lead one-shot is awesome. It does a great riff of Lovecraft, and it's a ton of fun. The Imperial Guard series is equally great, with the Guard and the remnants of the Starjammers heading into the Cancerverse and fighting their versions of the X-Men. The Inhumans story, however, is slightly scattershot, but still fun. And the Son of Hulk story, well...it's pretty bad.

I appreciate a cynic Medusa. The Inhumans stories really work better when writers are aware of how fucked up their society is, so this was interesting.
Really liked the decision of having Crystal narrate this comic. Also, I tried very hard not to let him, but Ronan really got to me here.
