Thought this one would help me understand the MCU Avengers Infinity War, but this one is much more tied to the comic book storyline instead. Nice bonus to see a little more Black Bolt and the Illuminati.

Technically I read this in singles on Marvel Unlimited, but whatever. So I guess Marvel’s taking a Dark Days: The Road to Metal approach with these now. Great. This book collects Avengers: Infinity War Prelude #1-2, Infinity #1, and Thanos Annual #1.
The actual Infinity War preludes (or, more accurately, tie-ins) aren’t really anything to get excited about. I don’t even remember what happened in the first one, and the second just felt like a wiki page in comic format.
Infinity is really good, but it isn’t related to anything revolving around Infinity War besides Thanos.
Thanos Annual is...ummm...okay...?
So don’t buy it unless you’re against actually cohesive comics.

The only thing that bugs me about Marvel is all of the different mediums you have to have access to in order to understand what's going on. 😡

- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Loveable characters? It's complicated
- Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

This was not 136 pages of prelude like I thought. This was 30ish pages of prelude and then about a hundred pages of other comics that I’ve never read so that was very disappointing.
I would have liked to have seen more about what everyone got up to in the two years between Civil War and Infinity War.
The prelude itself was good as I liked to see the parts of Civil War that happened off camera and the art style is one of my favourites so far from the comics.
So overall, I ideally wanted less comic I’ve never heard of and more prelude.

I enjoyed this book because I could channel everyone's voices in my head as I went along. I also liked the insight it provided for what eventually happens with Thanos.

A useful recap story to prep you for the film, followed by two issues that make no sense if you aren't following current Marvel lines and have no idea what's going on in the comics universe or a good grasp on Marvel history.

The actual tie-in comics were great but the rest felt like just extra baggage
