COMICS: Jim Starlin Returns For THE INFINITY REVELATION Prequel, THANOS ANNUAL #1

Looking forward to this and the novel.

Lim and Starlin together? YES!

Nice to see Ron Lim doing a cosmic Marvel book again.

Biased,only because I have original sketches of Cap(on actual Marvel artboard),Thor, Iron Man ('70's armor FTW)and the Silver Surfer framed and hanging up in my house by Ron...

Starlin writing Thanos...Instant Buy.

lol @ Alfredo

@rebellion - Or some people actually prefer the universe level threat and cosmic stories that define Thanos, and his intriguing character and internal conflict. People like me who dont care about MCU or Fox but the comic characters that came before any of the films. Apoc is a good villain with some good stories but to me he is nothing compared to Thanos, who's run in the Infinity saga is amazing as was his pre-infinity saga stories such as The Death of Captain Marvel.

Ron Lim has always been awesome and is always forgotten when everyone talks about the great artists. Where has he been?

Can't wait for this to come out.

@alfredo and rebellion

Sorry Apocalypse is cool and all but he is no Thanos. Thanos is one of the best villains Marvel has ever come up with. He is powerful, complex, and just an overall amazing character. He is the Marvel counterpart to Darkseid for a reason because he is one of the most powerful villains to ever threaten his universe.

Starlin and DnA need to join forces for cosmic mini-series.

The Mad Titan...along side Talent

Always love reading about the exploits of my favorite villain in literature.

I can't believe there's a Apocalypse vs Thanos argument (I'll admit I've always wanted to see Apocalypse show his face in the cosmic stories and take on Thanos). Be that as it may, there's a good reason why there's no Apocalypse annual (besides the Marvel vs FOX thing). This is gonna be lengthy so grab a beverage and a snack.

Apocalypse is dead. D-E-D. He was last seen attacking the UN and using his blood as a cure for a virus he created (or some such). In his next appearance he was reborn as a child. X Force killed that child (though his clone apparently still exists). Archangel became the new "Apocalypse" but he was killed (sort of). However before he died Archangel conceived twins with one of Apocalypse's horsemen. They were kidnapped by Kang the Conqueror and raised in the future (often sent to the Days of Future's Past timeline as punishment). Now these Apocalypse Twins have come back to the present and murdered a slew of Celestials and framed humanity for it. They tricked Scarlett Witch into teleporting every mutant off planet before it was destroyed. Now they all live on another planet called Planet X. These events are still unfolding in Uncanny Avengers so this will likely be reversed through time travel shenanigans. Whew.

THANK you for doing that, so that I did not have to type all of that out. Unfortunately, those two were trolling so they probably didn't even stick around long enough to read your post. I'm not sure whether they're fans of Apocalypse or, if like some users on this site, they received all of their knowledge of these characters from movies and tv. If so, that would be sad as they would be missing out on some GREAT Thanos and/or Apocalypse stories. Plus, they'd be missing the feels of THIS: Jim Starlin and Ron Lim, working on Thanos! Ahhhhhhh..................all is right with the universe! Now, all they have to do is BRING IN ADAM WARLOCK!!!!!! [frick] the Magus, bring back Warlock!!!!!

THE MAD TITAN, BITCHES!!

This series should be awesome. Nobody does big purple like the creator himself.

what I want to know is whom, between Thanos and Apocalypse, throw the best BBQ. Any ideas?
