Ignition indeed! This issue was pure awesomeness. For anyone who has been a fan of Thanos, Guardians of the Galaxy, Nova, Quasar, Gladiator, The Inhumans... and even older Starlin stuff, this one had it all - plus a last-page shocker which is truly a "resurrection" done right. I was expecting the Magus to be the big-bad of this series, but boy was I wrong!
With all the Avengers and X-Men stuff getting so much attention, I forgot all about the Thanos Imperative, but sweet Jesus, it was so much better than I expected it to be. Pick it up if you haven't.
