The Infinity Gauntlet (War, Crusade, Thanos Quest) Appreciation Thread

Is it me or is Silver Surfer #44 heating up more than usual?

Yes it is. 1st Infinity Gauntlet appearance is becoming big.

 

I would have also thought SS34 would also be heating up a bit too, but for now it's not. (shrug)

 

 

As SS 44 overheats SS34/35 and the Marvel Age previews will see a increase in value as well. Think of it as a bleed over value.

Picked up a set of Infinity Abyss. Anybody read this? Thoughts?

 

I'm biased because I love all Starlin/Infinity stories, but......it was my 2nd to least favorite ("The End" was definitely my least favorite).

 

If you're a Thanos fan then it's definitely worth reading, otherwise I can't say it's a very strong series.

Okay, so being 40 years old, I have never read Infinity Gauntlet nor had any interest in the Cosmic heroes in the slightest but in the last month or so I have decided to give it a shot. It's the one area of the Marvel Universe that I felt I didn't know like the back of my hand.

 

Last week I bought the IG trade and read it in one night. I enjoyed it but was expecting something more and to be totally blown away. Perhaps I had to experience it at the time it came out to really get how important to the Marvel Mythos it was/is.

 

So I forged ahead and last night read Infinity War, which I thought was absolutely brilliant. Magus as the villain, the Doom/Kang combo, making the Infinity Gauntlet have power again, Thanos being the "secret keeper" of the infinity stone. I just felt that it was a better story, and not just the slugfest that IG seemed to be.

 

Ryan pointed out this thread to me this afternoon, and have already read all 107 pages. I don't know how long my Thanos / Warlock "phase" will last (I have the worst collecting AD+D of all time) but for now I'm all in.

Does the trade include Thanos Quest?

No it doesn't....so TQ #1-2 are my top priorities at a show this weekend.

TQ#1-2 are a continuation of Silver Surfer #34-38, I'd read those first before TQ.

 

There is a trade that has them all, can preview it here: https://www.scribd.com/book/249976719/Silver-Surfer-The-Rebirth-of-Thanos

I'm all set...a guy was blowing out his omnibi today at the show for $60, so I picked up the Infinity Gauntlet on and 34-38 plus TQ #1-2 are both in there. :cloud9:

Bumping this thread with good reason! I've been patiently waiting for a minty set of the Thanos Quest books for many years now and finally found my dream pair of raw books! Tiny bit of wear on the #1 but I'll take it! :headbang:
