>>150732672new friend Max
>>150732273Let's see if Dan Abnett can still write cosmic Marvel I guess that Groot mini he did was pretty good
>>150732699
>>150732315Hopefully Abnett will explain why Chris blew himself up in that Darkhawk special
>>150732721
>>150732743Whelp just one more chapter of the event left.
>>150732743huh this one certainly felt like less setup issue than all the other one-shots
>>150732672>>150732699I think you missed a page
Why doesn't Maximus use his mind control anymore?
>>150732960Things would work all too well in a story if a telepath just said "No." and made everyone do whatever they wanted, especially for an evil telepath like Maximus.
>>150732811Thanks OP
>>150732929ah fuck
>>150732315>>150732305>>150732656>>150732672>deadliest woman in the galaxy
>boy it's weird that Gamora and Darkhawk went completely silent/died after I talked to them about the Skrull threat>better not look into this for six months+
>>150732721>>150732699I don't know how different Cosmic Ghost Rider is to present day Punisher, but I find it OOC that Frank Castle would collaborate with a known mass-murderer like Maximus on a plan that would lead to the deaths of thousands if not millions of innocents, no matter what the ultimate "greater good" is.
>>150733382>deaths of thousands if not millions of innocentsWe are talking about a war across the entire universe, I say ten of billions at least
>>150733499Not anywhere close to the entire universe, it's just the local group
>>150733382This is the same frank that worked with Thanos after he killed everyone on earth and most of the universe.
>>150732576Why does Kl'rt suddenly dress like Paibok the Power-Skrull? The spikes on his head were always Paibok's thing.
>>150732656>>150732672I guess it was inevitable, but it's kind of a shame that Kl'rt has decided to betray Hulkling like this. I liked that despite everything he was loyal to his Emperor and even agreed to his decree to not kill people anymore. At the very least, I hope we get a better explanation for why he's suddenly decided to become a traitor.
>>150732325I'm out
>>150732325Captain pants>>150732305Gamora with the MCU costume completely abandoning any chance of having a Marvel from the 80s again they act as if the MCU was what the reader wants to have in Marvel comics, after this page I don't even want to see anything else from Imperial War, I know it's going to be that stupid MCU nonsense
>>150733962wtf is this shit? gamora alone can defeat all these star wars droids, the same here on page 24, these lgbt writers don't even know the power level of marvel heroes and this saga should be about bikini metal, sword and monsters and everything else that marvel sagas have always had
>>150733962Gamora stopped wearing the 80s outfit long before the MCU she was never getting that shit back. Honestly this is a step up from the stuff she was wearing before Ewing's gotg.
>>150732315>>150732402>>150732741It's looking like the Darkhawk special and that mini from a few years ago is retconned. Chris is alive again, the cancer guy is not Darkhawk, things are just pretending none of that happened. ...would be cool if the clock was wound back to the last Guardians 2019 ongoing and we had Richard Ryder's brother with the Nega Bands fucking around the universe too.
>>150735045He was alive at the end of the mini anyway the last page was a splash page of Chris
>>150732402Would be nice if we get an actual explanation to the whole Datasong thing Raptors are plugged into from like...2007?I assumed it was mostly Shi'Ar internet at the time.
>>150733549Was thinking the same thing, wonder if the artist got the models mixed up.
>>150732743This is Cosmic Frank we are talking about, Mind control resistance is something he knows well, if anything, he left them a message and made them "dead" til he turns his back on the inhumans.Would be interesting if they are keeping the mutant girl frank was trying to save from mephisto from cates book before the accident.
>>150735084tbf Dan Abnett did write all that stuff and wrote this, so we can expect some answer to that in the new Guardian book he's writing.
>Guardians comic>not a single blue dude with a star- name in it
>>150735079Honestly I quit reading by issue #3. It was fucking boring and nothing but whiny teen drama that had maybe 1-2 pages of Darkhawk in armor...then back to whiny teen drama. I hated it.
>>150735045Also looks like they forgot all the upgraded powers Raptors had in War of Kings. Raptors that fucked with Catastrophus and Vulcan could handle K'lrt.
>>150735319Yeah, there's a reason the new guy was completely forgotten about by everyone, weird as well since the comic was by Kyle Higgins, who writes plenty of Toku-inspired Action series, but he seems obsessed with focusing on the MC's medical problems
>>150733382Kind of different. Cosmic Ghost Rider is more of a Deadpool type in that he is a constant wisecracking sarcastic asshole guy with no regard for anyone's life, that always has everyone else roll their eyes at him. He died, went to Valhalla, and Odin sent him back to life after getting tired of his shit. His powerlevel is all over the place too. Since he is Frank turned into a Ghost Rider, then turned into a Herald of Galactus, then he was still beaten and made into a slave by Thanos for centuries. The same Thanos that killed Silver Surfer in seconds. While in another mini he effortlessly kills Thanos when he gets tired of being a literal whipped dog.
>>150732337Its Chris!
>>150735045Hickman (who obviously did the story outline) is just ignoring everything to do whatever he wants as he usually does. Jessica Drew fought Veranke in her series like two years back but this is acting as if she's dead. Shit like this is why I compare Hickman to Bendis: he does whatever he wants and ignores whatever gets in the way of his brilliant (not really) story.
>>150736008>I compare Hickman to Bendis:That and Bendis was Hickman's in, at getting Marvel Work.
>>150736008He's a far worse Bendis in that he has a much worse track record in trying to lead entire lines at Marvel. X-books, NuUltimate and now Cosmic Marvel are all flubs that are on him.
>>150736198wrong
>>150734116Abnette has always nerf'd Gamora. They turned her from marital artist with spidey tier strength to Space red sonya the first time around.
>>150737207>marital artistWhy yes, I want Gamora to be my bride.
>>150735500I think it was done as part of Disability Awareness Month or something, so it was meant to be focused on MS as a 'thing' (that's what he had by the way) but it sort of petered out into nothing. I'm sure they'll handwave away both existing, or how Chris is around again, but honestly they might just not. Imperial's done a few "things are just like this now", see Ronan being alive all of a sudden.
>>150732402So are they retconning the Darkhawk armor's origins again, or just expanding on it, or is the whole 'all a lie' referring to the War of Kings retcon to begin with.
>>150732743Gamora got a regenerative healing factor and Darkhawk got like over a dozen spare bodies. Cosmic Ghost Rider did a poor job.
>>150736198Get out of 4chan Bendis
>>150732811>>150733057This entire "event" hinges on the ending and if the vague and nebulous plan matters in the slightest or not
>>150736198Hickman has an autistic obsession with giving his books the perception of depth by throwing in big ideas and charts. He's essentially just Bendis if he was way more pretentiously autistic.
>>150732699>Carol and Cosmic Ghost RiderGross
>>150736198wrong. Hickman clearly plays ball with other writers who don't seem to have a problem also ignoring bad stories that didn't sell
>>150732268Bump
>>150732699Going by the choice to call it imperial guardians and this bit with CGR I think they might actually end up working for Maximus and the union. Either due to some leverage the union or because the alternative is sparking intergalactic war.
>>150732337I like that she’s an asshole and Abnett gets it.
>>150732337Years of practice!
>>150743111Thanks OP
