cajonist 's review for:
Thanos: Redemption
by Keith Giffen, Jim Starlin, Ron Lim
Three stars is an averaged result here because this is a really uneven collection. As is often the way with Marvel, there’s 6 issues by one writer and 6 by another with minimal enough connection between arc A and arc B. The first arc contains excellent writing with some really spectacular art but then on the second arc the quality of the art degrades significantly (bar one female character who the artist seems to have spent too much time on) and the story telling becomes incoherent, not just muddled, there were sentences in the second arc I genuinely couldn’t read.
This was my first interaction with Thanos outside of the MCU and I really enjoyed him as a character. There’s great balance required in writing a character who’s fun to be around and can have you for rooting for him but that you know would be the world’s biggest bastard if he was opposite you. Really well crafted.
