THE RETURN OF ADAM WARLOCK Part 1
That's right - as more and more parties take an interest in the Infinity Stones, a man with serious Infinity experience joins the fray! Plus: Nova Rocket leads the charge against the Raptors!
Rated T+
This brilliant Guardians Of The Galaxy ongoing series comes to end, but mostly just in name. We'll probably see another book on the other end of Infinity Countdown, depending on how well it does. Gerry Duggan is a supernova cosmic Marvel talent, to let his intergalactic vision go to waste would be a travesty. Kuder, To, and Herring have also used this series to firmly stake their claim on a chunk of cosmic real estate. Read Full Review
Guardians of the Galaxy #150 is one of those rare things we get in comic books: a satisfying finale. Its not technically a finale, and Im sure Ill be reading Infinity Pants or whatever comes next (credit to Jude Terror for that name). However, this was a fun comic that provided some closure for a few of its characters and the overall current plot. I can recommend this one fairly easily. Give it a read. Read Full Review
If, however, you're not just in it for the Warlock, this issue should do an admirable job of pumping you up for Infinity Countdown. It manages to polish off the Guardians' current series in flashy, satisfying style while also whetting your appetite for the event to come. Marvel's cosmic arena is looking wilder and more exciting than ever, and though it will continue under other titles, the Guardians' story is still well worth following. Read Full Review
While I'm not a big fan of resurrections, it's easy to make exceptions when it happens with characters you like. And so far, I'm three for three! It also doesn't hurt that all three are famous for returning from the dead. Read Full Review
This issue finishes one story and sets up about three more. Hopefully, the bigger story developing doesn't take away from the character development that I'm enjoying. Read Full Review
A well, constructed and fitting end for this run, sprinkled with fantastic art, this issue of Guardians of the Galaxy closes the door on one era while opening one for the next. Read Full Review
Guardians of the Galaxy #150 isn't an ideal series finale. It doesn't offer much in the way of closure, and it suffers from a lot of the flaws that have hindered the series since the Legacy relaunch. Still, between the strong characterization, Kuder's vibrant artwork and the return of a fan-favorite hero, there's plenty more good than bad in this comic. Read Full Review
Guardians of the Galaxy wraps up in a kind of ho-hum way as more a prelude for things to come than more of a true conclusion. Your excitement level for this issue depends a lot of whats yet to come so if your fine with that you'll be fine here, but I was slightly let down. Read Full Review
i like it.
THE ONLY THING THAT I DID NOT LIKE IS ADAM WARLOCK GETS REBRON....AGAIN!
The most exciting thing about this issue is that it´is not ending but it is beginning. For me this is the best Marvel serie from last year. Duggan is playing with characters very well and most importantly in deep space not on earth. Art is as always realy good.
If you approach this as an "end", it will feel like a disappointment that had many things still unresolved. But as part of the series and more of a link to what's next it's pretty good. I've been reading this book for the GOTG and Adam Warlock return was just part of it. Disjointed! Yes but that's more on the premature end than on Duggan. After all of this i still enjoyed reading very much so and look forward to part 2.
Kuder's pages were great as usual but i had to get used to his design for Adam Warlock. Marcus To actually made it look much better.
Marcus To is a legitimate artist who delivered a nice treat with Herring's amazing coloring!
My personal favourite issue of the series. Gerry Duggan ended this series making the fans feel satisfied. Now this u can call a Guardians of the Galaxy book. Lots of suprises and reveals. Left me feeling excited after finish reading the issue which most of the previous issues failed to do. Eventhough it wasnt perfect, it was still a fun read.
A big Raptor fight gives Ant-Man a chance to shine, but the rest of the book turns into a too-busy roster shuffle. Adam Warlock gets a healthy slice of attention, but for now, his storyline is quite separate from the Guardians. There's so much going on in Gerry Duggan's cosmic world that the "where to next" picture for the Guardians isn't as clear as it could be. Marcus To's art is a noteworthy high point; he's closing this volume down with a triumphant demonstration of his full potential. Great to look at, but a little confusing to read - this issue is a nice allegorical capstone for Mr. Duggan's full Guardians run to date.
There is a little bit of a pacing problem to this issue that I am sure is due to the fact that it was not always meant to be the finale to the series. Not every plot thread is tightened up, but there is certainly a good attempt. The end to the Raptor assault and the corruption of the Nova's comes to an end. The Groot mystery is explained if not completed. The biggest question still remains in the soul gem being a prison. This is left for the upcoming Infinity Countdown. Adam returns in what feels like a rush. The reveal of the hidden infinity gems to the enemies of the Guardians also felt as if it was quickly added. Even still there is some great looking art and some fun thrilling action. Ant-Man still feels like he is becoming a great partmore
A lot of rushing around and plots left dangling. Adam Warlock's return is just there and his new design is horrendous.
