Who’s the better villain, Thanos or Darkseid? We set out to answer the question by reading “Infinity Gauntlet” by Jim Starlin. This classic of the genre inspired so many future universe-wide comic book events as Thanos grabs ultimate power and utterly succeeds at dominating the Avengers and the rest of existence. It’s powerful stuff, if you have the whimsy for it. We talk about the great pencil work, Thanos’ retirement, and why “event” comics just don’t feel like this anymore.

Hulk lands on the savage planet of SAKAAR! “Planet Hulk” by Greg Pak breaks our misconceptions about Hulk comics, giving us a character whose complexity is highlighted through his own simplicity. And while a lot of this comic is a fun ride, it rips your heart out fast and brutal before you even know what’s going on. Seriously, this is a great comic.

As Annihilation comes to an end, we weigh in on the fates of Galactus, Nova, Silver Surfer, and more. Did Cammi ever matter at all? How badass is Thanos? Does the Negative Zone just suck and Annihilus is a giant baby, or is there a bigger picture? Does Ronan the Letdown become Ronan the Redeemed?
