So let's recap – Abnett and Lanning have created an event that logically flows from and references the plot/story of previous cosmic titles. The characterization is top notch and even transforms previously marginal characters into ones I want to see more of. Consequently, the main story and even the tie-ins don't get bogged down into pointless punch-fests. To top it off, the conclusion was not only fun and satisfying; it also opened a lot of possibilities for Abnett and Lanning's ongoing narrative as they continue to build the cosmic universe. I typically give out a qualified recommendation for even some of my favorite books. While I say you should read it, there's usually an "if you're --- or ---" included. That's not going to be the case here. The only reason you should not be reading the cosmic titles at this point is if you're homeless and have to choose between shelter or comics.

Call me biased if you will, but any perceived faults with this issue are just washed away by how much I enjoyed everything. I do wish the aftermath was touched on more in this issue, but the epilogue has been scheduled for a while and I'm not going to complain any more about it until I read that, as I assume that will answer any lingering questions and transition us into the next year or two worth of cosmic goodness.

Still, it's a fun issue, and Paul Pelletier's pencils are their consistent, energetic norm. If Marvel ever publishes another "Inhumans" series down the line I'd love to see him draw it, because there's something about the way he draws characters like Crystal and Medusa that just feels right. Hopefully next month's epilogue one-shot will finish wrapping this story up. There are still a lot of unanswered questions and situations, but Abnett and Lanning have done a good job up until now of dealing with them. Read Full Review
