Marvel NOW!: Thanos Rising

[infinitEEntropy]

I'm confused....is this a flashback origin type story or a current day story?

Flashback probably.

Comixology likes to do theme sales with new series. Crossing my fingers for a Thanos sale on Friday.

First review is in:

David Pepose gave it 2/10

But David Pepose may be the single worst reviewer on any major comics site. He basically goes into any issue with clear expectations for what it's going to be/what he wants it to be. If he gets something different, the book will get instantly panned. It was the same in his God of Thunder review. (He gave Thor: GoT #1 6/10)

Meanwhile, he gives the latest issues of A+X and Uncanny Avengers a perfect 10/10.

Maybe this first issue isn't that great, but I sure don't trust Pepose.

I concur. Pepose is a frigging idiot. It's a real race to the bottom as to who's the worst comic reviewer on the major sites because so many of them are awful but Pepose is a special breed of moron.

unless we start counting less "respectable" websites (read: random blogs), Hannibal Tabu is the only guy that springs to mind as being worse. But then, his biases are so out of control that I stopped really considering him a reviewer years ago.

Infinity Gauntlet itself is not an ever-green book per say, no. And that's because it's a BLEEDIN' CROSSOVER!

But alas, its companion-book, and partial prequel/adaption, is actually much better, and could definitely be an ever-green: THANOS QUEST.

It's good stuff. Painted Starlin art. Check it out, man...

I respectfully disagree . IG stands the test of time and reads well without any other Marvel books. The Following Minis, suffered from having to buy other Marvel series.

I don't consider him a reviewer either. But yes, he's terrible.

Wasn't too bad.

The art was nice, and Aaron tells a typical, but with a slight twist, story.

It doesnt appear to contradict too much as far as I can remember about Thanos' back story so far

This is a great book
