There is not much that I can say about this...except perhaps that this novel will go down in my personal history as the very first that I was unable to read due to sheer apathy. I'm usually able to grasp and follow plotlines, even when complicated, but this work was ridiculous (I mean Galactus is Reed Richard's SON???)
In addition to what I felt was a poor storyline, the artwork and the style of the layout was mediocre and didn't capture the eye at all.
Honestly, I did ... Read More

I was hoping that this volume would clear up some of the pile of questions I was left with by the end of Earth X, but no such luck. Just awful storytelling and (at best) dreary art.

Instead of all the various super ... Read More

I enjoyed the earlier volume, "Earth X," which was written by the same author... It was dense, but rewarding. This book, however, is just dense, almost unreadably so. Kreuger seems to be trying to cram every last little bit of the Marvel Universe in that he can, and the story is soooooooper gab-gab-gabby, overblown and kind of not that interesting. It's a haphazard tack-on to a very interesting earlier effort. Plus, the artwork (by a variety of contributors) is mostly really terrible, and looks ... Read More

Gorgeously rendered, creative deconstruction of the mythologies and philosphies underpinning the Marvel Universe. Only recommended if you like some more cerebral fare, as opposed to Wolverine vs Hulk.
This series looks into the nature of reality as defined by the various cosmic beings that live there, inhabit it, and manipulate and use each other and the greater and lesser races and creatures around.
