The grand conclusion to Adam Warlock's journey! Will he rise above and prove himself as the better Warlock, or is Eve truly his replacement?
This entire series has felt like it only existed as a way of putting Adam and the High Evolutionary in a new book around the time they made their big screen debuts in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. And would you look at that, the final issue arrives the same day the movie hits Disney+. Read Full Review
This is cheese all the way through, but it's pretty tasty cheese at the start and the finish. The High Evolutionary's biblical/Frankenstein allusions and the way the narrative recenters on Genis-Vell's daddy issues at the end--the writing is good in those parts.
The art is powerful throughout if a bit dated. It really helped haul me through the fight scenes, where the dialogue dipped into the kind of cheese I don't like.
After two of these retro series, I'm finally coming to grips with Ron Marz. I can enjoy (or at least tolerate) his writing in most situations. Superhero combat is the big exception. His characters just zappy zap and scream cliches at each other while my eyes glaze over. But now that I appreciate his no more
I have never read a series with less substance. I liked the final page because it has a certain character that I’m a huge fan of and I like the way Lim draws him, but that’s it. The story has nothing to say, the action is uninteresting, Adam Warlock has no agency, Eve is nothing, the supporting cast is wasted, and the conclusion is lazy.
