I was surprised how well written this was.

The characters look and sound as they should. Dialogue that is appropriate to whom it fits.

A lot of action to boot.

Alan Davis' art is stellar.

Acknowledges continuity and feels like it ultimately matters.

This comic book gets a big recommend!

I had a lot of fun and I look forward to readi more

The concept of Thanos here is VERY ambitious and scary. My only complaint is Cantwell's Iron Man ending. I don't buy Tony Stark hiding this type of knowledge.

For those wondering if Cates is ever going to acknowledge Immortal Hulk, you have your answer. I can understand it being slightly weird having it brought up in a Thor book, BUT to be fair it is not only acknowledged by the same writer but also that same said writer who is crossing the 2 books over this does make reading both books MATTER.

This was a good closer. 1 and 2 started off great but then this story dragged on and did not really entertain yet somehow it came together for a solid closing issue. I recommend this for fans of the characters only. If the middle of this story held up better I would recommend for normies but it was not entertaining. I'm actually surprised this wrapped up as neatly as it did. Sook has great pencils more
