Age of Ultron - 2/5

Annihilation - 3.5/5

Infinity - 4/5

I wasted time reading through AoU. I thought there would be an actual showdown with Ultron, not them skirting around timelines and fixing everything. The alternate reality with :flabbynsick: Tony Stark was wack, didn't make much sense to me. Felt cheated after reading through this bullshyt :pachaha:

Annihilation started off pretty cool, Annihilus wrecking shop and destroying Xandar was actually :damn: :wow: ending was kind of weak though. Annihilus felt really one-dimensional for how many panels they tossed his way. I was more interested in Thanos fukkery.

Infinity was piff, honestly. I didn't care much for the Builders storyline, they weren't wrecking shop like the Annihilation Wave and they kind of just annexed shyt and said fukk humanity, but didn't pop off on them. Thor styled something serious on ole dude :mjlol: three that hammer around the sun and fukked him up real bad. Then Black Bolt setting off the bomb and trying to battle Thanos. Man really ranked a full scream and asked if he could have another :demonic:

Black Order looked especially deadly. Glaive was a fukking problem.

And people want to say doom is an antihero. You get permanently dropped in the villain camp for that. Using someones love for you against them to turn them into armor? fukkboy supreme shyt.
Some of his core fans are so mad at CBR over that story. Lol. They think it was too deceptive, too petty, and too revenge based over Richards.

doom is incredibly petty. he named richards daughter after the woman. they just dont like him being petty if theres no win in it for him. they were probably fine with him being petty during time runs out because he ended up winning the endgame bowl, only to be mad that he ended up losing in the end.

@Mr. Negative

I ended up finding a grip of Quasar comics in cheap boxes. Might end up just buying the run since I have like 2/3 of it already. :heh:

Starblast looks interesting by the covers. I take it I have to get a few x-over comics?

Jim Lee work on one comic I got. :ehh:


yeah, but no a-list crossovers, IIRC. Quasar/cosmics were winding down popularity wise once Infinity Crusade flopped.
