Thanos: The Infinity Relativity by Jim Starlin
3.0
It's nice to see a continuation from the weirdness of Starlin's [b:Thanos: The Infinity Revelation|20454371|Thanos The Infinity Revelation|Jim Starlin|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1408717398l/20454371._SY75_.jpg|32024451], but other than Warlock having no idea what happened to him it's pretty disconnected. This is about Annihilus invading from the Negative Zone, which results in some pretty decent fighting but otherwise seems a bit cliche. What is interesting is seeing a team-up between the Infinity Watch and the rest of the Guardians of the Galaxy (even though they're drawn a bit... weirdly) with Thanos trying to manipulate things in the background as usual.
Warlock is pretty interesting in this one, since he's not this dimension's Warlock and everything is ever so slightly off for him. His interactions with everyone are tinged with enough discomfort and confusion that you can tell he has no idea what's going on with him. It's interesting to see the character of Warlock changed from someone with a gigantic universe-saving scheme to someone who's totally lost.
It's sort of annoying that this one ends on a bit of a cliffhanger, but the stakes are high and the characters are fun to follow around, so it was enjoyable on the whole.
