Did you like Fearless Defenders? WELL EVERYONE'S FAVORITE LESBIAN IS BACK!!
ANNABELLE RIGGS!!!!
But yeah, it's Annabelle/Valkyrie and they're in space and everything's great. Don't be scared off by the "tie-in" mention!

I love Angela. She's one of my favorite characters in the Marvel universe, and she and Sera are one of my favorite couples. Most of that is thanks to the excellent writers who attend her, so when I saw Marguerite Bennett wasn't writing this comic, I was wary. I went into Asgardians of the Galaxy, Vol 1: The Infinity Armada with low expectations, and, I'm sad to say, the story didn't even meet those.
This by-the-numbers space opera is so apparent in how it's just ticking boxes that I was bored to tears. I have read this story before in a hundred other Marvel comics, and Cullen has nothing fresh to say. The outlandish plot, costumes, and poses; the outright character assassination of Nebula, Angela, Loki, and Valkyrie; the humdrum, standard art: I expect that from 1950s comics, but we are better storytellers now. Cullen managed to clear the hurtle of acknowledging Valkyrie and Angela's queerness, at least, but not before Thunderstrike got some homophobic microaggressions in.
Another reviewer mentioned that this comic reminds them of what is wrong with Marvel Comics today, and I agree. Marvel owns such interesting characters, with such great potential, but wastes them on pointless plots that mean nothing and have little impact. They don't uplift readers, provide comfort, or inspire them to be better people, or you know, anything a hero is supposed to do.
