AN A.X.E. TIE-IN! Eros the Eternal! Starfox of Titan! The equal of his brother Thanos, matching his achievements every step of the... What? Oh. But you know what they say. Come the hour, come the...intergalactic layabout who'd rather have a drink? At least if this is Judgment Day, he won't be around for a hangover tomorrow.
Rated T+
A the mutant who is an Eternal who is an Avenger, Starfox is the unconventional key to the AXE conflict, and this issue makes a convincing case for his brand of heroism. Read Full Review
Kieron Gillen and Michele Di Nicuolo give us a character study on Starfox, Earths current Prime Eternal, and what hes doing to save the rest of humanity, as he, the Avengers, and Eternals from the destruction that the Mad Celestial has decreed. Mixed with a staccato like style, thats slick, and moves. What Gillens doing here has been the most character development Ive seen for Starfox since his run on Roger Sterns Avengers from the early 80s. Some good stuff here. Read Full Review
If A.X.E.: Starfox #1 effectively familiarizes you with Starfox and makes you emphasize with his situation. A slightly obscure character, Gillen does the character justice by making you feel for him and understanding his beautiful complexity. Read Full Review
A.X.E.: Starfox is a thesis statement for an apparently underrated Avenger that's bound to change a lot of minds and turn some heads. Read Full Review
I am 100% here for femboy Starfox who can make atom bombs out of love and struggles in the classic Marvel manner against his great weakness (that he's a bit mid). As someone who is also queer and a bit mid, I really appreciate the representation
I never expected to like this issue as much as I did. It's probably my favorite Judgement day tie in and is not even from a char that I like. But hey is Kieron Gillen using the lore he already established yo make up for a fantastic character study and a great story in its own right
The most interesting Starfox has ever been. Great issue!
Eros's spotlight issue has no right to be this fun. The pretty art has a distinctive anime-esque style and it's executed with superlative skill. The script is structured in short, choppy scenes and the prose is likewise pithy. Taken together, the work delivers a surprisingly enjoyable peek into Starfox's head while also connecting some important plot points for the larger event.
