New Keith Giffen Annihilation Interview at Newsarama . . . [SPOILERS]

Best quote . . .

NRAMA: Do you have any details about the size of the one-shot specials?

KG: I think they're going to be double-sized issues, because I believe there are going to be two herald stories in each issue, and each herald story is somewhere around 19 or 20 pages long. So it's like, you have Firelord, Silver Surfer, Terrax and the gay one.

NRAMA: The wha-?

KG: Stardust! Stardust! That's the name.

NRAMA: That's better.

Thanks for the link, man!

I really like the cover to Annihilation #6!

My favorite Quote:
NRAMA: It's been building toward that, with Galactus being used (and you could say abused) as a weapon.

KG: Yeah. The one thing people should look forward to in Annihilation is we're finally going to see what happens when Galactus really, really, really gets pissed off, loses his temper and lets go with everything he's got.

NRAMA: Oooo! What issue is that?

KG: That's issue #6. Everyone thinks, "Look, they captured Galactus. Oh, how horrible." Yeah, but he was up against forces he didn't understand. But when he wakes up pissed off, let's see what happens when Galactus decides to just not hold back and really go to war.

SWEET!

I always thought Stardust was just bicurious.

Well, at least we now know he wasn't referring to Air-Walker, so we can let all the guessing about him and Firelord die. :)

Lovely Cover for Issue 6. I always has an inkling that Rich would have the last cover all to himself. One of the most dramatic images I've seen of Nova for a long time and if you look closely its a mirror of the pose that Rich does on the cover of the Nova Corps files except his costume is a bit worse for wear. Could this be Rich's last stand as Nova? 2007 is either going to be the year Rich blazes a trail of glory or it could end up being the year that every die-hard Nova fan may end up rembering for the wrong reasons! Whatever happen Annilation is going to end with a massive bang!!

[Elegance Liberty]

I'm guessing 'the gay one' is Giffen's lame-ass joke when referring to characters he can't name on the first try.

(Sorry, I'm a little cantankerous today)

However, those spin-offs sound like fun. =]

[Dermie]

Well, at least we now know he wasn't referring to Air-Walker, so we can let all the guessing about him and Firelord die. :)

Well, considering that speculation about Firelord and Air-Walker was going on for years before Giffen made his comment, I doubt this would kill it off. ;)

Anyway, good interview! I'm really looking forward to the rest of the series.

Galactus getting pissed will be fun. But its hard to gage his relative power level these days, especially compared with heavyweights like Tenebrous and Aegis on the loose.

[Cthulhudrew]

Galactus getting pissed will be fun.

Galactus is getting drunk? That would be fun, actually. :)

[Scott Taylor]

Galactus is getting drunk? That would be fun, actually. :)

Haha. If I'm taking Galactus to the pub, there is no way in hell I'm driving him home.

[Cthulhudrew]

Haha. If I'm taking Galactus to the pub, there is no way in hell I'm driving him home.

Still, better having him drunk than smoking out. Could you imagine Galactus with the munchies? There goes half the galaxy!
