Infinity Countdown Prime 001 (2018)

So, that the direction where Marvel is going with Hamk Pymtron, eh?

Is this GORGEOUS art or what?

Have you seen such a gratutiously disturbing simple but mutually violent greeting between 2 as Loki saying eye ..err.. hi to Logan?

So, the SPACE GEM ended up in his hermetically sealed adamantium coffin, eh?

Turk props! Turk?! WEHT Turk last we saw this Frank Miller (developed) DD cast mate?

All the other Infinity Stones are going on in other books. Carol (in mirror universe) and Drax (away from Raptors), and K'lrt (this week in Hulk713). Where is the Spectrum and "Mar-Vell" grabs from? Doesn't that make 7?

Adam Warlock is placed after his one-shot Infinity Countdown Special 1. Thanos is placed after his series, right?

He's in Alaska then GotG. Here, he's in Canada then backstabbing Magus. Magus! UGH, Magus. Next, he scores another kill (although Contemplator predictably survived that blast) to score the SOUL GEM! Doesn't that make 8? The cover is likely spot on holder, right?

Well, they've got to resolve his story somehow.




Or what. Recent Deodato has too much line work making his art too fussy looking. He was never great, but I preferred his art 10+ years ago.




That was just unnecessary gratuitous violence that Marvel and DC engage in too much of these days.




One of these least likely characters to ever get their hands on an Infinity Gem; why not? It's amusing.




I think those are just references to alternate reality versions of Captain Marvel getting their own gems in their own realities, not ours.




Yes for Warlock. Not completely clear on Thanos.

That's fair - just a bit odd. There's the 5 W's questions around his sudden involvement with Infinity Stone. Also, the selection of husks he animated in Ultron's image, this ish, was peculiar. Does that suggest Pymtron in Alaska has been behind all the recent cadre of "Ultron units" pestering the GotG currently in that run?



Well maybe he can afford to lose a few grid lines since the novelty of that visual is old hat. Although, still better, as is, than many books out now.



Yup.



Turk was an excellent source of bumbling comedy relief back in the day. Then it was like no writer would touch him. Now, he's fine but it's also feels like more... oddness for this plot pitch that "The Universe" spewed these 6 gems across the cosmos and it looks like an uneven proportion end up in Earther possessions.



Afaik, Carol is currently on a question in an evil Star Trekky mirror universe to find that Bean and has discovered some foreign Reality Stone is involved. Took this story reference to imply(confirm?) it to be from 616 but might be wrong.

I'm really interested in this because of The Super Skrull. Is he in this? I know that Warlock is back, that probably means that The Magus is too. I guess that the Skrull will be explained. Thanks.

Yes, uhh, as stated Kl'rt gets hold of a Infinity Stone. Mostly just 2 page repeat of the 1 page epilogue as seen this week in Hulk 713.

From a writer's perspective, if you're going to unmerge Pym and Ultron, deus ex machine do-anything Infinity Gems are handy dandy for that.




Yeah. If the Infinity Gems were scattered across the entire universe, it'd make much more sense.
