So, I just finished reading the first issue of The Thanos Imperative released last week. First off, I would like say that I love Thanos. He’s one of my all-time favorite Marvel villains. However, he’s rarely seen, mostly because he’s been dead for some time. His Infinity Gauntlet storyline is a classic. Another good read is the Infinity War which features Thanos heavily. Anyways, last week I picked up The Thanos Imperative as I was excited to see him back in the pages of Marvel. For the record, it took my awhile to track down this issue as my usual comic book store sold out of the issue. I did manage to find it, and I must admit I’ve haven’t followed or read the Guardians of the Galaxy stuff, however, I really enjoyed reading this first issue. Drawn by Miguel Sepulveda and written by Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning, the Thanos Imperative was great. I admit I don’t know much of the back stories before this series, for example the Annihilation and War of Kings storylines, as I generally stay away from the cosmic universe of Marvel, however, this book was a confusing but enjoyable read. If you can find it, buy it now and enjoy! One question though… what’s with the talking racoon?
