This brings me to the skills of Adam Kubert. Im really enjoying his work on the book here, which is at least as impressive as his first run on the title. Here, Kubert is given more than just standard sci-fi comic work to do: he has alien worlds to create, complex theoretical science theories to depict visually, and strong emotional moments (like the horrific transformation of the Human Torchs skin) to convey. All of it is handled well, and theres an attention to detail which goes far beyond the range expected of even a high-profile Marvel comic like this one. Swirling smokey atmospheres are painstakingly rendered, facial expressions are subtle but effective, and distinctive textures are given to the surroundings of the characters, both in the organically alien space station and in the clinical, NASA-style space shuttle. Its a triumph for the artist, and a great match to the subject matter and Warren Ellis writing style. And that final page makes me so eager to read the next Read Full Review

Still interesting, I really enjoyed their conversation. The motivation of Annihilus was fine as well as his appearance. He's much better, than Ultimate Doom.
